Opening night. The cast is prepared. The crew is ready. The audience stills as the lights go up. The music begins and actors and actresses fill the stage with the fun and frolic of New York City. The commotion settles and Rick Coppola, Steve Andrews and Dave Civale begin to sing. The audience was hardly into the Scotia- Glenville High School dramatic production when a dynmaic presence arrived on stage. Anne Kwiatkowski made her debut as she cap- tured the lead role as “Adelaide” in Theresa Paulson's 1982 Spring production of Guys and Dolls. Anne was very excited about the part. Although she had had minor roles in other plays, she felt very comfortable with this one. Anne said she had no trouble portraying her character because, “all I had to do was put myself in Adelaide’s shoes and the lines and personality just came to me.” Out of all the scenes Anne's two favorites were scenes with the “Hot Box Dancers (Allison Castillo, Chris Juliano. Moira Maclean, Wendy Huff, Cathy Bliss, Michelle Cote, Lisa Denney, and Rose Bergin.) In one of these scenes they played “farmerettes” that were as cute as chickens in a hen house, and in the other scene they were high class women demanding respect from their materialistic boyfriends. Anne didn’t even mind the 8-hour rehearsals at night. As for the future, she sets her hopes for college. Although she has not yet decided on a major, Anne is planning on a minor in music. Anne would love the experience and the excite- ment of appearing in a major Broadway show. If the audience at Scotia was any indication, she might get her dream. The curtain closed, but a career may be just beginning for Anne Kwiatkowski. 5 Scotia-Glenville 8 Tartan Turf Trw ARTA� 1 The Newlywed Gang By Cheri Marinello Going from swinging singles to married women was a big change which three of our women teachers undertook over the summer of '82. Mrs. Deborah (Towle) Marcil, an English teacher, was married on July 10 in Long Island; Mrs. Dawn (Brown) Scagnelli, a Home Ec. teacher, was also married on July 10 in Schenectady; Mrs. Christine (Pettica) Festine, a reading teacher, was married on August 7 in Schenectady. Many changes took place! One for Mrs. Festine was getting used to Peanut Butter and Jelly, her new husband’s favorite lunch. Her lunch is no longer made by her mother, but by Mr. Festine. The name change was a tremendous obstacle to overcome. Mrs. Marcil says most of the time the students say, “Hi Miss Towle. Oops! I mean Mrs. Marcil.” Mrs. Scagnelli has trouble with her new name because the students cannot pronounce it. The students arc not the only ones having trouble with the new names. “I slip up more than the kids,” says Miss Pcttica. Since all three brides are teachers, the students were bound to have played some role in the matchmaking. In the Festines’ case, Mike Lamb played cupid in the ’81 Christmas season. It all began when Mike got Mr. Festine to help Mrs. Festine get a Christmas tree. Things were then made secure by the Discovery Program in which they both par- ticipated. Mr. and Mrs. Marcil also met at school and pursued their relationship from there. Not all matches are made in schoolheaven; Mrs. Scagnelli met her future husband in the summer of ’80 while working at Carl's. Everyone wanted to come back to work although it was difficult after the glamorous honeymoons. They ranged from England for the Scagnellis to Paradise Island for the Marcils to Hawaii, California, and Illinois for the Festines. As far as children are concerned, Mrs. Festine considers her 60 students at school enough for now. On the other hand. Mrs. Marcil is looking forward to children in the next few years and Mrs. Scagnelli says, “Someday!” Mr. and Mrs. Marcil Mr. and Mrs. Scagnelli Song Time rr 'z y x d I 7) Q i' 6L rUlEs PRBLfA KOs 5H J 6 KLLd Yin O I 2 eORGe 6aVi§Is VnOc fJ f Pbobl Ld2' 'G n K S uw | c b -4 PK� i fA o wv L A V ccole Bi 'NG tLI 5 y Ln ont i 5Krry qfVl Kv a � 07 Bei i Ve B 1 i S ho Py A P2LaN fhi r C hU„P or OFc HcbOTCel S y oo RS sO$AVs '+HFREVereA doFRoCl 'AKIJrOLL, UnMcnER.Li' STfn + OQ OV Wedh ESd ca Y AT nlUe PMTobL, o w YoUR MiflJ.

Vernon’s Varlets “Oh no, it’s 7:48 and I still haven’t finished my layout!’’ “Amy, are you late again?” “Lynda, today is the very last day you have to finish the color section.” “Bill, have you taken the football team picture yet?” “Sharon, how is the artwork coming? Tomorrow is our deadline, right?” This is just a typical morning in our homeroom — that of the Acropolis staff. Although it doesn’t seem they would have time, the staff members are in other activities as well. Dougie “Wougic” Henderson and Amy .Madelone were on ski team along with Kris Barry as president of Ski Club. Amy Sullivan, Ray Colucciello (president of our class), and Anne DeSimony were all on soccer teams. Bob Sampson and Gregg “Dobe“ Dobert along with manager Rob Dawes have all been on our football team. Margie “Dodie” Glover, Tricia Catta, and Denise “Bean” Graham have all been cheerleaders. Dean “Surfer Boy” Finn participated on track as did Gina Gardino. Pam DeBraccio, Meg “Shmeg DeCorah, and Lynda Quinn were all in Key Club with Meg as vice president. In our Drama Club were Thespians Wendy Huff, Bill Krogh, Julia Murray, and Rose Bergin. Cheri Marinello was president of German Club and Moira Maclean was treasurer of French Club of which Vic Fraenckel was also a member. Dina Williams and Jo Holtman were both in Spanish Club. Don Howe was known as the “computer whiz” and was into a million other things which he was too busy to mention. Our homeroom also included Lisa Mertz who has just returned from a summer at Army Basic Training. As the last words of the pledge of allegiance escape our lips, Amy Madelone, Kris Barry, and Sharon Gordon go immediately into a discussion of the artwork for the approaching deadline; Rob and Ray check sports scores; Victor and Ken put the final touches on the slide show; Lynda Quinn gets a cropper to work during study hall and several other staff members crowd around Mrs. V’s desk for presigned passes needed to carry out their various assignments. For Vernon’s Varlets there are no dull days, just deadlines and more deadlines! Rob Dawes 18 Pamela M. DeBraccio Marguerite DeCorah Anne DeSimony Gregory Dobert Dean C. Finn Victor H.

Addison Michael Airhart Ray Colucciello: “What’s down there anyway?” A’s and B’s Although traditionally homerooms are alphabetical, A-25 almost seems to be homogeneously grouped. Many students in this homeroom are involved in ac- tivities along with a small group of sport stars. Mike Airhart and Dave Addison have participated in such activities as Spanish Club, American Field Service, and National Honor Society. Brenda Brown is very involved in Key Club as well as student senate which Johanna Acker also enjoys. Bob Biscossi is a member of Deca and Jamie Adam is a year- book photographer. Andy Boniewski and Ted Barnett are too busy with their cars and motorcycles to join a club. A-25 also has some members that are fond of sports. Mike Bowers enjoys ten- nis and Johanna Acker plays basketball. Sean Baker, Dave Addison, Randy Angers, and Fredrik Almgren all like the sport of Football. Brenda Brown also participates in a vigorous sport which is Field Hockey, while Rich Betts says he’ll stick to his weight lifting. A-25, run and operated by Miss Bennett, has students that are very out-going while others are content to be spectators. As I left 1 heard the encouraging words of Dave Austin, “Go for it!” 23 Fads and Fashions Waka, Waka, Waka ... Chomp! — by Moira Maclean To some this quote means nothing. To others it is the familiar sound of the little yellow Pacman gobbling up the big blue monster. The 1980’s has been rumored to be the new Video Age. The Fads and Fashions of 1982 can prove that theory. Flow many of us have at one time or another been found at the local arcade feeding quarters into a machine, anxiously awaiting the start of a new game? Over 50% of the people our age have acquired the great skill necessary to guide the frog safely across the stream, to capture the enemy ship, and to avoid obstacles to save a damsel in distress from the mighty “Donkey Kong.” This billion-dollar enter- prise has found its way into our own homes in the form of Pacman memorabilia and home video units such as Atari which br- ings Pacman to our T.V. screens. Nothing can beat the combination of video and music. Many kids today find themselves glued to the box “listening to their favorite groups on the new cable channel Music Television (MTV). This revolutionary station caters to all tastes of musical preference, displaying video by big groups such as “The Who , “Fleetwood Mac , “The Doors , and “The Rolling Stones. It also introduces obscure groups like “Altered Images”, “Blotto , “Haircut 100 , and “Bananorama.” If one isn’t in the position to watch television then just strap on your stereo and go! The new per- sonal stereos are meant for just that. Com- plete with lightweight headphones and belthook, these stereos go everywhere and anywhere you go. The computerized world reaches into every facet of life. One can buy a fashionable wristwatch that not only displays time but plays your favorite tune, and acts as an alarm, stopwatch, calculator, and even a tiny video game! The world of fashion today is as diverse as can be. The term “anything goes is not to be taken lightly. The adventurous, fashion-conscious teen is most likely to be a patron of the wild punk scene. This would include the up- dated version of the 60's miniskirts; metallic shoes, belts and bags; matching or clashing tights; soft, ruffly blouses; and punky sunglasses. For the more radical dresser there are always chic taffeta dresses or leather in the form of jackets, pants, skirts, bikinis, and even thin neckties. To top it all off is the new brush-in or spray-on hair color in fuschia, gold, silver, blue, or green. More likely to be seen around Scotia are the conservative fashions for the typical teenager. This category includes colored shoelaces for shoes or hair; the prairie-look; denim jackets; low-heeled pumps; straight- legged jeans; and sneakers. Fashions for both sexes are oxford-cloth shirts, college sweat- shirts, football jerseys, and t-shirts sporting the latest rock concert. As one reflects upon past years, one can see that the fashion scene hasn’t changed drastically but has become more unique. This uniqueness will be remembered and probably copied twenty years from now. Nineteen eighty-two introduced the concept of com- puterized video to the world. Who knows what the future has in store for us; after all “Anything Goes! 24 Dear Unkle Ritchy: I have this horibel spclmg problem and I wonderd if you coud help me I used to bee a good speler but somting hapened two me at mte somtime lass month whitch I dont understand I thik you shoid try to hep me buy doing som reserh into this abnormalitey whitch came upon me so sudenly.

Trublcd Speler Dear Trublcd Speler: You are obviously the victim of a very rare spell that falls upon selected individuals during the full moon which occurs in November every other 75 years. In most cases this spell will wear ofT in time. However, if you wish to effect an immediate cure my researcher revealed that in 1786 a Transylvanian Physician. Dr Bela Augosi. discovered how to cure the poblem Whoops' I mean problem. Dr Augosi writes: Take one pail of swamp water gathered dur- ing the full moon of any month during which the effects of the spell are evident Into the swamp water place three tablespoons of Dr. August's secret elixcr. Clinical analysts has revealed that this elixer has the same texture and chemical content as grape kool-ade This potion should be consumed at midnight on the front steps of a library. Although Dr. Augosi predicts instant cure, you might play it safe by keeping a dictionary close at hand Uncle Rich Dear Uncle Richie: I would like to thank you for your support of the soccer team, which did a great job this year. I say thanks to you also for giving me a chance to study at this school. It will help me in school when I'm back in Germany. It's a good idea of yours to try to get the students away from drugs and alcohol, and your Victory Dance will be the start of it. Thanks for all. Yours. Jan Podcll Dear Jan: Thank you for your nice letter regarding the soccer team. We all hope that your stay with us will be rewarding and that as a result of our association we may make one small contribution toward the building of a bridge of understanding and respect between our nations. Ach du Liebcr Uncle Richard Dear Uncle Richie: What ever happened to those quiet, serene study halls in which you could actually do some work? For the last three months I have been stuck in a study hall in which I am surrounded by a bunch of underclass girls that continually modulate their verbosity. They also read such subversive magazines as Teen Star. Mademoiselle. and Glamour Due to this I have had to leave this study hall at every available opportunity. The study hall teacher and I have tried everything short of execution, but they persist in their gabb- ing Please help! Signed. Distraught Young Individual Dear Distraught: Aren't underclass girls a tear? Fur Shur! Fur shur! And can they ever modulate their verbosity. Not only that, they can talk too If you re really sure they read those subversive magazines. I hope you are seeing the cutting edge of a new fad — reading Not many teeny boppers are into reading, so they can't be all bad If things get worse. wC can begin deportation proceedings and send them to California where they will probably be right at home. I am definitely opposed to execution. Unde Richey_______________ Dear Uncle Richie I have often wondered what your hobbies and interests are out- side of school. It’s very hard to picture you making a Christmas list or eating a bologna sandwich with potato chips’ I don't know why I am curious about this other than the fact that I only see you in the hall and hear you daily on the morning announcements. Love. Curious Dear Curious: It is pretty heavy stuff for a person to answer a letter like this. Your letter seems to imply that the principal lives in an ivory tower and always eats mayonaise sandwiches on white bread with the crusts removed. Actually the first part is accurate. However, know for a fact that Dear Uncle Richie he eats the crusts. As a close personal friend of the principal. I see him every day and I can make some observations about his hobbies and interests The principal tends not to prepare Christmas lists; he indulges in impulse shopping usually on Christmas F.ve. As I understand his motives, he loves the pressure, actually he begins to shop around noon of December 24 so the challenge is even greater I have seen him indulge in a bologna sandwich now and again, but his real weakness is peanut butter and jelly sandwiches com posed of crunchy peanut butter and strawberry jam; can you im- agine that? I don't think he cares much for potatochips From what I can observe, as soon as he climbs down from the tower, he immediately becomes a normal person, clay feet and all. Uncle Rich Dear Uncle Richie I have a problem which to me is serious. My boyfriend plays Varsity football. He doesn't get home until 6:30 p.m Since I go to BOCKS in the afternoon. I only get to see him for a little while in the morning He calls me every night, but I'm limited to 15 minute telephone calls As it stands right now I only go out with him on weekends I want to see him more than I do now. Could you in- tervene on my behalf and get my BOCES schedule changed to the morning so that I might see him in the afternoon and afterschool? What should I do to go about accomplishing this? Signed. At Wits End Dear Wits End: As I prepare an answer to your most poignant letter I would con- clude that the problem is now moot since the football season is over Did it ever occur to you that the separation may actually enhance your relationship? “Absence makes the heart grow fonder? ' Which ever it is or was. you are witnessing a phenomenon that is never ending. Consider this, if you two should some day marry he will work all day and so might you. Then after work it will be softball in the summer, hunting in the fall, bowling in the winter, and TV football every Sunday. You're just getting some early experience with a problem which most women face. I would be able to write much more but my wife has just told me that when I finish the dishes she wants me to run the vacuum and take out the garbage. Uncle Richie Dear Uncle Richie: I have a growing annoyance about the student parking lot Every morning when I pull into school I have to search around to find a decent parking space, and if its later than 7:30 a m. forget it all the good parking spaces arc filled up. (as you can tell I have a favorite spot). My suggestion is to have all the seniors names on their own parking spot Of course, the better than average cars gel first choice of spots, average get second, poor, third, and so on and so forth. Frustrated Ferrari Dear Frusty: You poor thing I know exactly what the trouble is. You are at- tempting to drive that Ferrari into a parking lot where he is definitely out of place Hu pride is damaged and you know those Latins when their egos are involved Have you noticed how difficult he is when you arrive after 7:30 a m., so fussy, first he turns his nose up at one spot then another'' A Ferrari will not park next to just any old car. as you know. He wants to arrive in a regal manner, sweep down the parking lot. turn and ease into the pnze spot. Then let the peasants gather about. Your only chance of curing this very common complaint is to ar- rive before 7:30; or. you can move to Niskayuna where he will pro- bably find company. Bona Fortune! Uncle Rich Dear Uncle Richie: I am a concerned pedestrian who walks to school. Every day I encounter large groups of the so called “beautiful people. These beautiful people partake in socially degrading activities, such as the smoking of cigarettes and alleged controlled substances. They also mock, mimic and taunt us passers-by with unscrupulous demodulated verbosities. We. the walking students, would like to know what can be done to rectify the situation Signed. Had Enough Dear Had Enough: Under no circumstances should you give the beautifuls any hint that you hear their taunts, and very seriously, you should care less what they have to say. I am convinced that individuals who in- dulge in the verbal harassment which you describe do so as a result of their inability to cope with their own feelings of inferiority and inadequacy. The unscrupulous demodulated verbosity of which you speak is part of a tribal ritual chant which when studied closely reveals a scries of intelligible words separated by ineffective reinterpreta- tion. and obscenity. Since the beautiful speak thus to their friends, very often to their teachers, and probably their parents, it is not therefore so unusual that you also should be saluted in like manner From a practical view, may I suggest that you use an alternate route to the school. Since the beauts” tend to convene their meetings at a particular location, it is possible to enter the building by at least two other routes which are not substantially longer than entering by the main door. Take heart Had Enough there will always be the beautiful people for you to deal with. You must be grateful that you can decide the difference between yourself and those who use mockery as a weapon If there is ever an excuse for you to act “upity.” the time is right when you pass them. If they'disturb your high hat anyway, don’t leave them in any doubt of your disdain. Uncle Rich Deer Uncle Richy. I wood like to rite you to thank you for hiring all of those wonderful cnglish Teachers I have never learned so much in my entier life. I was w undering like if I could may bee posibiy becum an English tcachure wen I get out of collej This is the only thing that I have set mi hopes for I real lee look up too yoo a lot so I was kmda wondereng if maybee like you could possible give me sum advise. I dont no wear I woold bee without all of my English Skills Thanksa heap!!! F.nglush fanattic Dear English Fanatic: I read your letter with great interest; it is evident that you are enthusiastic about a career as an English teacher. Your interest is obviously the result of the excellent leadership and example you have received. I do have one suggestion however, when you Finally become an English teacher. I would get a new type writer The one you how use makes too many misteaks Uncle Rich Dear Uncle Richie I think I have the symptoms of a serious problem called senioritis. I daydream constantly during class and have developed a habit of skipping classes, (mainly early in the morning and sometimes all day on Mondays). I Find myself bringing the wrong notebook to class just so I can go to my locker and roam the halls I also try to talk to as many people in the halls as I can. just to waste time This problem is turning into a sad case, but I need help desperately before it gets worse. (I never thought it could happen to me). Signed. Your Typical Senior Mid-semester Dear Typical Senior Mid Semester I have read and re-read your letter and I am concerned that you do indeed have an acute case of senioritis. I urge you to seek medical attention at once before this irrelevant disease makes fur- ther inroads. Recent research has revealed that unintended senioritis can become so habit forming as to require intensive detoxiFicalion Because this disease tends to become epidemic, and is extremely infectious, we recommend that you immediately seek membership in senioritis annonymous Although the recovery rate for advanced senioritis is very slow. I am pleased to report that there have been very few people ever to have lost their academic lives as a result of this malady If you are unable to overcome this problem on your own. you will probably be referred to Dr Richard McGuire's Senioritis Clinic Rumor has it that Dr. McGuire's cure for this dreaded sickness is 100 percent effective If all else fails, why not sign yourself into Dr Mcuuire's clinic?

Mike Cremo, Matt Cater and Brian Clune participated in Varsity football. Vic Caisse and John Chernoch also participated in track. Mike Cremo, Dan Conley, Matt Cater and Vic Caisse have played baseball whereas Rich Crenko and Joe Connely played on the ten- nis team. Joe Connely also participated in golf and cross-country skiing while John Cher- noch was on the alpine ski team. Mike Cremo, Dan Conley, Matt Cater, and Rose Ciarmello all have played basketball. Brian Clune, Pat Caisse, Karen Chase and Rose Ciarmello have added their talents to volleyball. Lisa Carlin and Rose Ciarmello both contributed to field hockey and cheerleading. Many members of A-29 have taken part in their school activities. Sue Collamer and Mark Caban were yearbook photographers. Rich Carbin was in French Club; Tamara D'Antoni was in health careers club; Bob Casper was in the Aerospace and archery clubs. Homeroom A-29 has suggestions for the underclassmen. Matt Delos advises “Work to your best ability even if you don’t like it, and in the long run you will be the one that benefits.” Issy Cruz urges, “Enjoy your senior year once you get there.” Michael J.

Connelly Michael Joseph Cremo Isabel Cruz Daniel Conley Malcolm Creighton Performers Spac By Victor Fraenckcl For the fourteenth straight year, the Saratoga Performing Arts Center was the summer spot for Scotia-Glenville students to enjoy musical specials. Rock specials have become the bread and but- ter for SPAC, and coupled with the flat track is the reason for Saratoga’s pro- sperity. There were a few noticeable absentees from the SPAC stage over the summer of ’82, but with new faces and familiar favorites, the loss was next to minimal. Opening the season was the return of the Summer Freebie. This concert showcased up and coming performances in a concert free to the public. “Duke Jupiter was the headline act, along with “Blotto”, Carla DeVito and Micheal Smotherman opening. Duke Jupiter is hoping for the same success enjoyed by the last free concert headliner, “Journey” in 1978. The debut tour of super group “Asia” began the regular schedule of shows. The tour was in support of 1982’s Album of the Year, “Asia.” This group featured former “Yes” members Geoff Downs and Steve Howe as well as John Wetton from King Crimson and Carl Palmer. They brought the house down with an intense drum solo by Carl Palmer. For the fourth year in a row, “San- tana” opened their tour at Saratoga. As always, quantity and quality were pre- sent as the band played for over three hours which included six encores, one of which was a stunningly beautiful guitar solo by the great Carlos Santana himself. Martha Davis and “The Motels” sounded superb on “Take the L” and “Only the Lonely”, both off the Album “AH Four One” as they opened for the bad boys from Boston, “The J. Geils’ Band.” Giels and company almost single handedly ended summer rock concerts at SPAC in 1975 after inciting a riot because they cut short their show. This year the Geils' band played more than the minimum while putting on one of SPAC’S more entertaining shows. “Genesis” took the prize for largest crowd of the year by drawing nearly 27,000 people, just 5,000 short of SPAC’S alltime record set by “THE WHO” in 1971. Since Peter Gabriel left the band five years ago, drummer vocalist Phil Collins has made the group more and more popular. Their past two albums “Duke” and “Abacab” have both gone platinum. Their concert showed the talent and flexibility of this fine English trio. “Cheap Trick” closed out the season at SPAC in front of a near sellout crowd who braved the freezing weather. “Cheap Trick” is one of the most enter- taining bands to watch mainly because of Rick Nielsen’s guitar antics which feature twenty or so guitars with a five arm 30 string piece. Some other shows at Saratoga includ- ed the “Doobie Brother” farewell tour, the laid back sounds of Pete Seeger and Arlo Guthrie and Elton John’s all around show. All of these help keep SPAC the summer spot for Rock Music. 32 • • Off Stage! Frank Culligan Lori Dalrymple David J. Dariano Steven L.

Changes in classes, clubs and sports, but there is one thing that basically stays the same, homeroom. Homeroom A-31, run by Mrs. Moses is filled with many active people who have made their four years at Scotia- Glenville worthwhile, and others who have sound advice for underclassmen. Joeseph Felso has been in Boces in 11th and 12th grade and has been in skeet and traps since he was a freshman. Paula Kldred has been in drama club and Choralaires since llth grade and has also participated in A.F.S. Dan Farley has been very active as a member of Chess Club, Spanish Club, Archery Club, trap and skeet and Save the Animals Committee. Shayne Figliola has been a member of Astronomy Club and has participated in football, tennis and wrestling. Melissa Ceorgelas or mouth as some call her has been a member of Varsity Club and Student Senate. Active Melissa participated on the soft- ball, soccer, volleyball and basketball teams. Jim Denney has been in Varsity Club and French Club. He has also played football, tennis, and been a Varsity wrestler for three years. Pam Fay and Ann Farrel both wish good luck to the underclassmen as they all bid a farewell to Scotia-Glenville High School. Shayne S.

Shannon Gehly Melissa Georgelas 38 Tricia Goyette A Colorful Homeroom At 7:40 each morning the true colors of Mr. Spaziani’s homeroom come out. The members are as varied as the colors of the spectrum. “Konnie” Hull, notorious for being a joker with the teachers, is also on the varsity football team, along with Mike Large. Mike suggests to underclassmen to take a dic- tionary to Mr. Rainey’s class. During football Becci Harriman is also out there with the team, only the cheerleaders are her squad. Michael Guzzo, known to all as “Fro” is a lit- tle daredevil and a member of the varsity soc- cer team, a great combination you must agree. Trish Goyette, Linda Koelbel, and Shirley Kujan would know about great com- binations they were all members of the field hockey team and also members of the Key Club. Hope Laing, secretary of Key Club, also holds the position of number one player for the girls tennis team. With a name like Stormy Lake you wouldn’t think she’d have need a nickname but she has one that fits her very well; “Bir- die” a name she easily lives up to. There are three language club members in this homeroom. Gail Grundy and Michele Lasher are members of Spanish Club, and Alberto Iaia is a member of French Club as well as AFS. Even though I couldn’t mention everyone in this article, I assure you that each person in A-32 is a colorful addition of the Class of ’83. 39 Ken and Vic: “Why do we even bother?!?” 41 Michael Guzzo John Harrington Michele Hannon David Hausmann Rebecca Harriman Steve Herman Bccca Mace: Oops! I made a boo-boo!” Konrad Hull Anita Hunt Christina Huntley Alberto Iaia Laura Hollenbeck Just loungin' around.' 43 Susan Isabella Carmine Iuliano Linda L. Koelbel Lamella J. Korthas Would you put your yearbook in the hands of these staff members? Shirley Kujan Michael Large Super-Jocks A discussion of sports scores or con- gratulations dominates the conversations in homeroom A-33. One can easily recognize that most of the seniors in A- 33 play sports. Many of them have been participating in sports since their freshman year. Donna Leffler, for in- stance, has participated in soccer, track, and ski club. She holds many records in track for the long jump. Then there are Jim Mastracchio, Jamev Mickle, Greg Mastro, and Jim Morrow, the “All around jocks, that hop from one season to the next playing sports throughout the year. Then there arc those like Tricia Meacham and Carolyn “Mom Litynski, who not only play sports throughout the year, but also hold responsible positions in clubs or sports. Carolyn is currently Vice-president of the senior class. Tricia is a captain of the Girl’s Varsity Soccer Team. Another talented athlete in this homeroom is Becca Mace who has been on the Gymnastics team for four years. Kim McIntosh is a member of Key Club. Other members of Key Club include Caro Mercado and current president, Kevin Licata. Tracy, Tracelene” Morgan, and Jill Mericle make everybody laugh. Tracy’s favorite saying is “Shoie” (that figures!) Jill, who is also a photographer for the yearbook, advises underclassmen not to wear pink sunglasses, or eat yellow snow. Mrs. Lewis, the homeroom teacher, keeps the group quiet, in line and very organized, for there are many, many peo- ple who stumble in a little after the bell. 45 Michele L.

Mickle Senior Summer by Ken Chaisson The crowd mills around a few hundred young men and women dressed in red and white caps and gowns, these synonymous with high school graduation. Some are relieved that the ordeal of public education is over, others weep, knowing that they will never see some of their friends again. Those few hours on a Saturday morning in June are pro- bably the most important and moving in your life to date. As you walk out of Proctors double doors you wonder what’s going to happen to you and your friends. Some grads will go out to dinner with their family and friends. Others will have a quiet family celebration with Uncle Dave and Aunt Edna from Spokane. The majority of the grads will be partaking in the by now infamous grad party. Friends arrive at the grad party in cutoffs, tank tops, and swim suits, a far cry from the formal attire they were wearing a few hours before. Good times flow at grad parties for about two weeks after graduation, by which time some of your friends have left for places with strange sounding names such as West Point. Annapolis, Fort Dix, Lackland, and Paris Island. With a few of your classmates gone into the military and others off to full time employment, it’s time for Scotia’s ex-seniors to go on vacation. Graduates spend a great deal of time in Upstate New York’s most popular vacation spot. Lake George. If you’re not interested in the car- nival atmosphere of Lake George or Sacandaga Reservoir, you might retreat to one of the hundreds of small Adirondack lakes to spend a quiet week recovering from grad parties. For the ex-seniors who arc not fortunate enough to go on vacation because of work or other obligations, the most exciting place in Scotia during the summer is Collins Park. Basketball, baseball, and tennis games are always in progress, and sometimes the competition is fierce. The Scotia Cinema also provides a place for that bored grad to go. There's always a good movie down at the theater and if you’re lucky, an action packed serial such as “The King of the Rocketmen.” Now it’s the last week in August; you get a note from your college confirming your orientation day. That was five days ago. most of your friends are gone, either to the service, jobs, or college. If you’re lucky you’ll know some people going to your school and you might even room with them. More than often you will be a long way from home, an alien with no friends in a new school. It’s a humbling experience, going from a well respected senior in high school to a lonely college freshman. Your only senior summer is now over, it went loo fast for some and too slow for others. It doesn’t matter which way you look at it, your senior sum- mer was a transition period from a time when all the decisions were made for you to a time where you take control over your destiny whether you like it or not. Timothy Miller Tracy E. Morgan Kelley Morse James A. Morrow Robert Morris Mary Migliore Andrew Mitchell Dawn Nicholson Stephanie E. O’Hare Michael Oot Today we'll start a new' life And we’ll say our last goodbyes To all the friends we’ve grown to love With whom we’ve laughed and cried. Remembering the fun and laughter. The problems and the fears. And watching all our memories grow Throughout our high school years. The memories of the dances And the new friends that we’ve met. Vacations, teachers, talking And exams we’d rather forget. Yes, high school days are precious but brief. Where all your dreams come true: It is not the end. but the beginning Of a life we’ll start anew. 52 I 53 A-34 Saves the Animals Mr. Dylong’s homeroom A-34 can prove 10 be a very busy one each morning, as its many active and humanitarian members congregate. Talented Julie Mountain has been in French Club. Student Senate, and National Honor Society. She was also Secretary and then President of Student Senate, and President of Save the Animals Committee. Sheela Premsager might have been heard discussing her many activities such as AFS, FHA, Student Senate. Health Council and Computer Committee. Sheela was also Vice president of the Save the Animals Committee. Debbie Rafferty was involved in AFS. National Honor Society, and was also Treasurer of The Save the Animals Com- mittee. She also played basketball in her 9th and I Oth grades. Donna Neary entered the group late this year as she had to finish her basic training for the army. Donna was involved in Drama Club. French Club. FHA. Choralaires and was also Junior Class Secretary. She was also busy participating in basketball and track. Jan (Poodle) Podehl, an exchange student from Germany, participated in AFS Club. German Club and also played soccer. Michele Prusko participated in Spanish Club and Key Club. She was also involved in soccer, basketball, tennis, and both J.V. and Varsity cheerleading. Kathy Plaugh could sometimes be heard using her favorite say- ing “grow up , as she was trying to report to the group about the meeting she had attended as Senior class homeroom representative. Kathy was also a member of the varsity club and participated in Softball, Soccer, and volleyball Joan Raktica might have been seen wandering to her homeroom a few minutes after the last bell had rung, Joan was in both Key Club and Student Senate, and participated in Field Hockey, Track, Basketball and J.V. Cheerleading Stephanie O’Hare, graduating a year early, could sometimes be found running into homeroom, reminding us of her four years in both cross country and outdoor track. She was also involved in AFS, Drama Club, and Secretary of German Club. John Pagiotas was a very active athlete, participating in Football, Ski team, and Track. Linda Pelham, the curly red head, was active in Student Senate as an activities coordinator. She also played soccer and was on both J.V. and Varsity cheerleader. Her words of wisdom to underclassmen was simply, “Keep your hands out of your pockets to avoid falling down the stairs.” John Pagiotas Dave Parillo 54 Mike Paro Dawn Diane Pederson Teresa Pedone Linda J. Pelham Julia Pieper Katherine M. Plaugh Jan H. Podehl 55 As my life goes on I believe somehow something’s changed, something deep inside; Part of me. There’s a strange new light in my eyes Things I've never known change in my life; change in me. Now I see myself as I am Feelin’ very free Life is everything that it was meant to be. When my days have come to an end I will understand; what 1 left behind Part of me. I’ve been searchin’ so long, to find an answer. Baby, it’s true, it’s only natural. Good things in life take a long time .. . — James Pankow 1 Walk down that lonesome road all by yourself. Don’t turn your head back over your shoulder And only stop to rest yourself when the silver moon Is shining high above the trees. ... Carry on Never mind feeling sorry for yourself. It doesn’t save you time from your troubled mind. — James Taylor ... I got you. babe. Mush, You Huskey! It’s 7:15 in the morning; the rain is coming down in torrents. Out the door he plunges, scream- ing as he goes. The rain soaks his jacket and slicks his hair. You see his short stocky body walking a burned pace up Sacandaga Rd. You feel warm and dry inside your secure bus. When he gets to school, you might make fun of his wet clothes or his rain slicked hair. This is what an average walking student must endure to reach Scotia's Palace of Secondary Education. This situation could happen to any walking student: this particular incident occurred to Dan Sapone one day in early fall. Dan lives on Knickerbocker Rd. in Scotia, approximately one mile from school or as Dan puts it 3.226 sidewalk blocks. On the average day it takes Dan twenty minutes to get to school: in inclement weather ten minutes extra arc needed. All of us who walk home have at one time or another been inconsiderately splashed by an un- wary motorist. Dan will swear profusely at them, chase them for about a block while screaming their license plate number. He says that this is usually enough to make that motorist think twice about splashing another pedestrian. Mr. Sapone says that on an average winter day he slips on the ice at least five times. Four out of the five times there is an old lady watching who laughs at him. Dan likes to slide home on the ice. saying that it increases his mental and physical co-ordination. The only real problem Dan has with walking home in the winter is that he has to wear arctic survival gear to prevent frostbite. Dan feels the school board should provide limo service or at least taxi cabs to walking students on inclement days. Dan takes pride in the fact that he walks to school. “I'd rather die than go on the late bus. sums up Dan's attitude about riding that magic bus. When asked what he does when bus students present lewd suggestions at him. Dan has a frighting response. “I feel resentment, a sense of hostility. 1 don’t acknowledge their existance. I feel this type of person should be sevcrly tortured. Dan hasn't let this sense of pride go to his head. He says that he only abused his privilege of living close to school once. “I left school one afternoon in my freshman year because 1 had to go to sleep. All in all Dan shows the personality and attitudes of the average walking stu- dent a forgotten log in this mechanized world of ours. . ..

Dazed and Confused Ronald Raffan Joan Marie Rakvica Debra Lee Rafferty Salvatore Ranucci Barry Rapavy David Raushi Corine Richotte Moira and Michele: Sisters” till the end! Daniel Ruggiero John Russell Lockhart’s Loonies “What are you, stupid?” bellowed Don Simmons as I walked by homeroom A-35. He was debating with Chris Santilli and Dan Sapone about who had made the most errors in yesterday’s baseball game. The people in A-35 have a variety of interests. For Helen Riggi and Barry Rapavy it’s basketball. Sue Shea was the homeroom representative for Student Senate from 9th to 12th grade, a J.V. Cheerleader, and also the secretary for Spanish Club. You must have seen Greg Shaver on the soccer field for four consecutive years. Dave Raushi and John Schumacher, like the others, are dedicated to their interests. They were loyal in one ac- tivity throughout high school. For Dave it was track and for John it was Ski Club. Although, not everyone in this homeroom had the time to join a club or sport, each was an asset to the graduating class of 1983. 63 Theresa Saddlemire Christopher Santilli Krista Schaeffer Kelly Schlegel Alice M. Schmidt Daniel Sapone like fattier like Foreign Invasion How would you like to pay $35 for a pair of Levi jeans?! Well, according to Fred Almgrcn, that’s the price you have to pay in Sweden. You may learn some interesting facts about foreign places for this year at SGHS you’ll be seeing a few new faces. Fred’s is among them. The others arc Pia Nielson from Denmark. Mustafa Taner from Turkey. Christine Campbell from Scotland, and Jan Pohdel from Germany. Fred is staying with the Montana family. So far he likes it here, but he misses his Swedish classmates. In Sweden he goes to a school which is called a gymnasium. When he returns he will begin his second year there. Some day he hopes to be a pilot. Right now, though, he says. “It’s only a dream.’’ Pia is not an exchange student. She just decided to take a year off from her school, which is also called a gymnasium and go to school here to sec what it is like. She is staying with the Moore family, who are friends of her family. When she goes back to Denmark, she will begin her first year at the gymnasium. She is interested in languages and hopes to become a translator. At least she isn’t having a difficult time understanding English like Mustafa is. Mustafa is from Turkey and he has only had a few months of English. He is taking honors English, regents American Study. Physics, and Calculus. I wish him the best of luck. Those classes would be tough for me and I’ve spoken English all my life! Once again we arc happy to welcome these people to Scotia. We will enjoy learning from them here and hope they enjoy it also. I wonder what they pay for a pair of Calvin Kleins? Alberto, the Italian Stallion. Mustafa, the Turkish Wonder. Jan from Germany. Pia. the Danish Delight. Sweden’s Fredrik. Tony, the Italian Stallion. Jr. 66 Milestones Those Who Have Gone In the days of media awareness, we follow our heroes and heroines as if they were members of the family. It is no wonder that we should so mourn their passing. Among those we have lost in the past year arc famous political leaders, sports personalities, actors and actresses. If your awareness is geared toward politics, then perhaps these names ring a bell. Anwar Sadat and Moshc Dyan. Anwar Sadat, the former President of Egypt and leading hope for peace between Arabs and Jews was assassinated in October of 1981 Moshc Dyan, a Jewish military leader, also died in 1981. On the other hand, if sports is more an issue of interest to you then perhaps the name Salvador Sanchez rings a bell. He was the Featherweight Boxing Champion for three consecutive years and died in August of 1982. The hardest hit profession, however, afflicted with many deaths of superstars was showbusiness. Among the familiar names was actor comcdian Paul Lynde. best known for his regular ap- pearance on The Hollywood Squares.” Natalie Wood who also died in 1982 was best known for her oscar winning role in “Westside Story.” Known for his role in “National Lampoons Animal House,” actor John Belushi died in 1982. Actor William Holden also passed away in 1981. He was best known for his role in “Bridge on The River Kwai. The two most well known and possibly even the most mourned were the deaths of Princess Grace of Monaco and Henry Fonda. Princess Grace, a former U.S. actress died in September of 1982. She made many films and motion pictures in Hollywood and then married Prince Ranier of Monaco and became everyone's Princess. Perhaps the greatest loss in Hollywood is the passing of Henry Fonda. Mr. Fonda's best remembered Academy Award winner for his role in the classic 1940 movie “Grapes of Wrath,” and 1982’s “On Golden Pond.” for which he won the Academy's Best Actor Award just months before he passed away. Although Henry Fonda. William Holden. Princess Grace and some of the others who have passed away arc one or two generations before our time, they represent excellence and near perfec- tion in their fields and will live on as legends forever. Entertainment What’s at the movies? This became a popular saying among many Scotia-Glcnvillc students this summer. Every week dedicated movie goers showed up at the doors of movie houses all around the Capital District Area, including Mohawk Mall, Cine 1-6, and the cver-popular Scotia Cinema, right here in town. This year Hollywood churned out yet another fine group of motion pictures such as intense dramas like “An Officer and A Gentleman,” and “On Golden Pond, satires such as “The World According to Garp,” and “Arthur,” and Steven Spielberg's newest children, “E.T.” and “Poltergeist.” The focus of motion picture attention was largely on younger audiences with films like “Fast Times at Ridgcmont High.” “Porky's,” and Pink Floyd’s musical extravaganza. “The Wall,” which compares to the old Who movie. “Tommy.” in its powerful drama. Horror movies were also on the upswing, especially sequels to popular movies from the past such as “Halloween II,” “Friday the 13th Parts II and III,” and the “Howling II.” Other, newer films were “The Wolfen.” “Ghost Story,” and “An American Werewolf in London.” Comedies were back, too. With Woody Allen's Midsummer’s Night Sex Comedy.” Steve Mar- tin’s “Dead Men Don’t Wear Plaid,” Richard Pryor’s solo nightclub act. “Live on the Sunset Strip,” and the late John Belushi's parody on love. “Continental Divide.” Science fiction movies were again on the silver screen. The return of “Star Trek” with its second movie. “The Wrath of Khan”, “Blade Runner”, and the newest computerized fantasy, “TRON.” Serious dramas hit the box offices this year too. The portrayal of a young man who was kidnapped by underground organizations. “Missing”, “Absence of Malice”, a story of what public ex- posure can do to a person’s life, “Victory”, a story of World War II. and “Rocky III” were Sylvester Stallone's contributions to the industry this year. Of course, along with all this comedy, drama, mystery and horror, the theater provided the Capital Area with cult thrillers such as “The Rocky Horror Picture Show”, “Eraserhead”. “Creepshow”. and the twelve-part motion picture serial, “Rocketman.” The Theater provided a little something for everyone this year and we all look with anticipa- tion to next year’s money makers. Who knows what’s next at the movies? John E. Schumacher Joyce Semerad Eric Shave Suzanne M. Shea “But Mr. McGuire, it just won't fit in my locker.” 68 Gregory Shaver Jaffa! “Chiquita! Don Simmons Scott Smith Mary Stevenson Hey Good Lookin’’ Gregory Spradlin Kevin Symons Mustafa Taner 69 Alex Thorburn Laurie Thouin Susan Tomlinson A-36 Goes for It! By: Amy Madelonc The voices bounced off the walls as I entered homeroom A-36. From across the room came the distinct voice of Kathy Zarnofsky, alias ‘Zar’ who has been the student senate representative throughout high school. Zar played field hockey in the ninth grade and is well liked by everyone. Her only advice to freshmen is, “Grow up a little.” Zar was speaking to the senior class homeroom representative Laurie Thouin. ‘Lor’ is very athletic and has participated in soccer as well as soft- ball and volleyball through her senior year. Lor turned to Louise Wilkinson, “Weeze” who has par- ticipated in Varsity Club, Varsity softball, basketball and volleyball and is presently the student senate secretary. From out of the confusion Fred Turnbull caught my attention. ‘Fred- die” was a member of astronomy club. National Honor Society, Spanish Club, Archery Club and was Tartan Aerospace Club vice presi- dent in eleventh grade. Freddie was speaking to his twin brother Dave who was in Chess Club, National Honor Society, and help an office as secretary in the Aerospace Club as well as receiving letters in a sports such as cross country, indoor and outdoor track. That concluded the excitement of homeroom A-36, but as I left, I heard Marie Wekszner blurt out, “Go for it!” Ray Townsend William Truelove 70 “Of course it’s classical music. ‘Who’s Next'.' David E.

It’s Ann Singsheim and she's in homeroom! The BOCES kids meet for homeroon on the bus! There’s the representative, Jamie Calante in the front seat who is always smiling and laughing. James takes Building Construction I and II at BOCES. He and Pat Cavanaugh are laughing at Mark Delos who is telling a story about his two years of Commercial Foods. Mark mentions the big con- trast of his cooking experiences and his three years of playing football. “Rebo’’, Pam Presseisen, can be seen talking to Lisa Riley, discussing their Cosmetology classes. There’s “Red”, Claudette Cary; everybody knows fun- ny advisable Claude. Right now she is telling an underclassman about her Fashion Trade course. Mike Parisella is in this homeroom and we all know how Mike is a little accident prone! Don't forget the time mashed potatoes were thrown at the BOCES bus and how Mike was the only one with his window open! Mike says flying mashed potatoes can really sting when they hit your face! Poor Mike! He was telling Terri Pedone, who was absent the day it happened, about the potato incident. Lisa DellaVilla hears Terri's disbelief. “It really did happen Terri,” Lisa tries to convince Terri. “I should know. Some of the potatoes got on my uniform!” Lisa has been an LPN at BOCES for two years. Well, it’s a different kind of homeroom, but it’s an interesting difference.

Volleyball takes concentration! New Face in Town “Just when we had the old Assistant Principal broken in!” Although some students might feel this way about our new administrator, Mr. Johnson is someone we won’t have to break in. He has experience at the job, having just left the position of Assistant Dean of students at Guilderland High. Mr. Johnson is usually seen mingling with students or hurrying down the hall to some unknown discipline problem. He has made many new friends at Scotia, but at the same time he has kept law and order. Mr. Johnson, a graduate of Plattsburg State, also attended SUNY at Albany. After college he began working at Glens Falls as a math teacher and counselor. Next he became Assistant Dean of Students at Guilderland High, which he thought was a challenging job. Now these skills that he has acquired will come in handy as he assumes the job of Scotia Glenville’s Assistant Principal. When asked how he had enjoyed the first few weeks at Scotia, Mr. Johnson said, “The students have a positive attitude.” He hopes that he doesn’t have to talk to just the delinquents and encourages students not to avoid him. His main goal at Scotia is to get students to say “Mr. Johnson is fair and considerate.” Mr. Johnson is a family man and the father of a five year old and a one and a half year old. He enjoys many sports such as basketball and volleyball. With all of this in his background he should be a positive addition to the Scotia Glenville High School staff. A virtuoso performance! 83 Mrs. Smith One Busy Lady Who is the lady we all know who spends most of her time helping Scotia-Glenville stay on top? This lady starts her day at 5:00 a.m., makes sure that substitutes are in time for absent teachers, cleans the Xerox machine, types notices and gets money ready for the cafeteria to name a few of the obvious tasks. During the day she coordinates the prin- cipal's conferences with students and checks that he keeps appointments and meets his work deadlines. She insures that there are tickets for athletic games and that money for all clubs and activities is counted and put into the bank. She coordinates activities so that there is not more than one event scheduled at a time. After school she finishes her typing for the day, answers the telephone, gives out ice and bandaids when the nurse isn’t there and helps the Student Senate organize their activities. She then goes home to West Glenville where she helps her husband (who also works another job) on their farm. She cleans up after and feeds the animals. She helps split wood and drives the tractor to load the hay. Although she was born and raised in the ci- ty, she loves the country and doesn't think that she would move back for anything. A resident of our area for 22 years, she loves it at Scotia-Glenville High. When asked “Why?” she said she enjoys the atmosphere created by the faculty and students. If you haven’t already guessed who this lady is that keeps this school of ours running, she is our lovable and understanding Mrs. Dorothy Smith. Office Secretaries Front: Mrs. Betty Marotta.

No, it wouldn’t be Ann Landers, it would be your Scotia-Glenville guidance counselors. The Guidance Department is the place in the school where students may turn to talk over concerns, school related or personal, with a professional counselor in a confidential setting. In the broadest sense, the counselor’s basic goal is to coordinate the student’s educational, personal and social life in school as it relates to the teacher, the parent and the administration, and to help the student toward a positive, successful experience which will lead to his her own future goals. In addition to the walk-in personal counseling that goes on daily, counselors have many duties that are tradi- tionally assigned to the area of guidance. These include assessing seniors of graduation requirements, coordinating all visitations from post secondary institutions and the armed forces, assisting in the college application and finan- cial aid processes. Scotia-Glenville is a testing center for the College Entrance Examination Board. Three or four Saturdays each year students meet their counselors for the thrilling experience of taking their SAT’s or PSAT’s. Counselors also administer New York State Preliminary Competency Tests, Cognitive Abilities Tests, Iowa Tests and College Board Advanced Placement Tests. Delivery of vast amounts of information is a major responsibility of guidance, and several avenues arc taken to insure that the right information reaches each person. The Guidance Information System is software which per- mits data retrieval regarding colleges, financial aids, occupations and armed services. An Apple II micro computer offers simple programs relating to graduation requirements, financial aids, outside counselling and referral resources. A publication called the Guidance Update is distributed monthly to each senior and junior with copies to each freshman and sophomore homeroom reminding students of important testing dates, scholarships, and alternative careers. Communications between home and the school is most often done through the guidance department. Counselors arc intermediaries, setting up parent conferences, giving information, clarifying school procedures, or responding to whatever questions arise. Whatever the reasons might be, whether it be for program scheduling, college guidance or personal counseling, the counselors arc always there to help. Students in Scotia-Glenville High School feel they have one of the finest guidance departments in the area. Guidance takes a break! GUIDANCE SECRETARIES — Norma Burns, Sandy Zabielski, Marie Klatt. 85 Language Gulcn Tag. Buenos Dios, and Bonjour are three greetings that arc common to language students at Scotia. The Scotia Glcnvillc language department is known as one of the best in the area. Proof of this is ap- parent in the fact that they were the recipients of the James E. Allen Award for the Capital District Region of New York Stale. The award is presented yearly by the New York State Association of Foreign Language Teachers in recognition of excellence in foreign language teaching. The enrollment in language courses has constantly increased over the past several years. This year is the first in several years that three languages: French. German and Spanish have been offered on a fourth year level. The French IV and Spanish IV meet on alternate days and on the eighth day they meet together. The German IV program also meets on an alternate day basis. This year the language depart- ment welcomed back Miss Nancy Alkonis. an English teacher, to teach Spanish again.

Why they re students enrolled in one of Scotia-Glenville's exciting art courses. Under the direction of Mr. Spaziani and Mrs. Kulmatiski. who comes to us from Voorheesville High School, the art department strives to emphasize the theory of solid design. A diverse variety of courses arc offered, stressing the elements and principles of design. Courses in advertising, photography, studio art. pottery and craft arc taught by Mrs. Kulmatiski. Mr. Spaziani teaches drawing, painting, perspective, lab in art, and illustration. In the past year, students from Scotia-Glenville have had work exhibited in many different art shows. Displays at The College of Saint Rose and Colonic Center have had Scotia students’ work in them. Perhaps the highlight of the Scotia-Glenville art year is the exhibit at “Song Time” in the spring. The students arc not the only ones who have had work exhibited. Mr. Spa- ziani has recently had displays at Cobleskill College, Day Spring Gallery in Saratoga and at the Open Door Book Store in Schenectady. No matter where Scotia-Glenville art students have had their projects ex- hibited you know that it is the best work that can be done thanks to the dedica- tion, compctance. and hard work of Mr. Spaziani and Mrs. Kulmatiski.

The time is 1:36 p.m. The place is Scotia-Glenvillc High School. Room A-12. The bell rings to an- nounce the beginning of eighth period and students pour into the room. They notice that their teacher is dressed all in black; for those who may have forgotten about the test. Mrs. Chant's somber attire serves as a “friendly” reminder of the challenge that lies ahead. Wearing black on test days is just one of the many idiosyncracies of Mrs. Nancy Chant. English teacher par excellent, and senior class adviser. Among other things. Mrs. Chant is famous for her outgoing and zany personality and her unconventional manner of dress which includes boasting blue nailpolish. an occa- sional mini skirt, and tying her long, blonde hair secured ponytail style in a scarf matching her outfit. It is not surprising that Mrs. Chant was voted “most happy-go-lucky,” in her senior class. She keeps active because she really loves her job of teaching and working with kids. In the beginning of the year, she starts out with a group of new faces, and as the year passes. Mrs. Chant grows with the students, and in turn, learns from them. She finds that being the senior class adviser is rewarding in the sense that it allows her to get to know the students on a personal level rather than just on a student and teacher basis. She also loves all the social events that come with the senior year — graduation, graduation parties, senior banquet, prom, etc. Despite excellent planning, she dreads the in- evitable last minute arrangements for all of these activities. Sometimes the pressure becomes tremendous, but Mrs. Chant always comes through for the seniors. Mrs. Chant’s open and friendly demeanor with her students is reflected in her relation- ship with her daughter. Arden, who is present- ly in second grade. Mrs. Chant and Arden are not only mother and daughter, they are actual- ly very good friends. Mrs. Chant, a very sincere and outgoing person, dislikes arguing intensely and avoids it whenever possible. She likes to create a har- mony between people and lives by a simple philosophy attributed to Abraham Lincoln. In her own words, “People are as happy as they choose to be. and I choose to be happy!” Talents By: Gina Gardino Some students know him as “Tex.” You may see him from time to time strolling in the halls or going to instruct another math class. He is a fami- ly man at heart and his time is very occupied. I believe “to know him is to love him.” To most peo- ple he may seem like another ordinary guy. Well, think again. Who is he? Why. our own Mr. Pete Huston. Mr. Huston has had a little more than an or- dinary life, traveling and doing for other people. Much of his traveling has been done by camping. The Huston family has camped in the Grand Canyon — in tents no less! The only two states he has left to visit are Louisiana and Alabama. Mr. Huston began teaching at Scotia in 1966 and has been teaching here ever since except for a one year leave to teach math to Indian children in New Mexico. Mr. Huston attended Northeastern University to earn his BA degree in Anthropology, and then his Master's degree in math education. He also at- tended Bridgewater State University. You may sec Mr. Huston outdoors after school coaching the girls’ J.V. soccer team. He enjoys coaching and predicts a good soccer season. At one time he did coach the cross country ski team, and in the spring he will coach girls’ softball. On a more personal note, Mr. Huston is quite a family man. He has four children, two of whom arc adopted. The two adopted children arc of a minority background. In the interview I asked Mr. Huston what motivated him to adopt two minority children. He responded by saying he believed there were enough children for whom there was not sufficient care. Why bring more lit- tle ones into the world when there are many underpriviledged children who need a chance to lead a better life? If more people in the world had that attitude. I believe this would be a much nicer place to live. Tells All By: Margie Glover Woof Woof I’m Ding, Mr. Kavanaugh’s canine companion. I’m here to say a few words about my pal. I guess I’ll start by telling you the story of our summer and how “Joe” wound up in a cast! Well, it all started the first day of summer when he was playing tennis. There he was running around on the court really work- ing up a sweat. All of a sudden his opponent lobbed; I mean the ball flew over his head! Despite his being right next to the net. “Joe pro” couldn’t resist going for it. He jumped as high as he could; but it was all in vain. Instead of hitting the ball, he tore his Achilles’ tendon and that was the end of our summer fun. Despite our abbreviated vacation, something good did come out of the accident. Joe and I really had a lot of time to talk, and I found out some interesting things about him. For instance, did you know your Mr. K. listens to rock music and used to be lead guitarist in a rock-n-roll band called “The Knights?” Joe even let me hear a record they cut. He also told me that they played on some T.V. show called the Ted Mac Amateur Hour. Some ad- ditional experiences he shared with me were his memorable days at Albany State College. For instance, he told me how his friends and he used to play football in the snow at two o’clock in the morning without gloves! Despite his exotic earlier days my friend is the hardest and most dependable worker in the world! Being a math teacher and chairman of the math department entails a tremendous amount of work such as planning three classes, supervising all the math teachers grades 7-12, budgeting the money for the department, get- ting the computer center going and scheduling the math programs! That schedule is strenuous on a person who is up to par, but my buddy did it on crutches! If you pass by one of his classes you can see him sitting down leaching via an overhead projector. Although his work is tough, he never complains. He says he loves his work and would never want to give up teaching! All his pupils and associates ex- claim what a wonderful, big hearted guy he is! I think he’s pretty special too; I think I’ll keep him! 89 Business Just as the business world is always changing, so are the business courses at Scotia-Glenville. This year an entirely new curriculum was started beginning with Business Dynamics. Bet- ween now and 1985 there will be all new courses and sequence requirements. The sequences will be as follows: General Office Occupations, Specialized Office Occupations, Bookkeep- ing Accounting Occupations, Recordkeeping Occupations, Computer Related Occupations, and Personal Business Management. The courses that are offered help you to gain practical experience and provide terrific back up skills for the college bound student. For exam- ple, there are student secretaries who work for their own teacher two days of their schedule. The work that is done is reviewed by the teacher and any suggestions, compliments, or criticisms are taken into consideration by the student. It is very unfortunate that in view of the ex- cellent opportunities that are available in the secretarial field that more students are not in- terested in pursuing this area as a career. There are always more jobs available than there are students to place. John D. Evans Shorthand I, Personal Typing, Academic Head — Business.

Every single teacher was in charge of an activity, event or responsible for organizing a student project. You may have had to meet with one of these elusive instruc- tors and gone to their classroom only to find them busily engrossed in the many problems of the average Scotia-Glenville student. This was a classic case for Mrs. Vernon, who was senior ad- viser to the yearbook staff. Her time was consumed by hordes of idea-tapped layout designers. Mr. Maryanopolis was also busy with his Pyramid Program. Student’s projects ranged from ap- pearing on WRGB’s Student Spectrum to teaching a computer course to junior high students. Many teachers acted as advisers to organizations. Mrs. Mar- cii was advisor to the National Honors Society, and Mrs. Chant acted as the senior class adviser for the third year in a row. But our English department is much more than activities. For several years now, the focus of attention has been on writing. A school magazine, “Concresence, has published students' poems, stories, and artwork under the watchful eye of Mrs. Rose. Scotia-Glenville has also used the writing group to im- prove writing habits. This process has students giving both the good points and improvement suggestions for a piece of work. Our dealings with the writing group have been very successful. Mrs. Rose has organized a senior citizens' writing group that has, on occasion, visited the school. Many of our teachers have taken courses that used the writing group as a part of their curriculum. We have a great English department here with the best teachers in the district, and it’s getting better all the time, so watch out class of 1984! Catherine G.

It’s Mrs. Moses Bunny Moses: European Culture 10, Afro-Asian Studies 9, World Affairs Night. Guess who’s been teaching in the Social Studies department for thirteen years ... is the mother of two children in college . . likes to collect antiques .. . was the very energetic and very active faculty advisor to A.F.S. for five years at Shalmont — and then nine years at Scotia ... is an active participant in a cultural program in which she chaperones a group of Scotia-Glcnvillc students in Europe loves to learn all of the time ... and really cares about people. Who can it be??? Egads! It's Mrs. Moses! Mrs. Moses teaches Social Studies to ninth and tenth graders at the high school. Many students view Mrs. Moses as a very “tough” teacher, in the sense that she expects discipline and gives students homework assignments nearly every night. Most students get assigned their first term paper in Mrs. Moses’ ninth grade Social Studies class. When finished, the students know how to write a term paper! Mrs. Moses' goal is not to be “tough,’’ but she admits that she docs expect a lot from her students. She likes to provide students with a challenge. She stresses that she wants her students to “reach up” to their full academic potential. She also expects discipline so that students can really learn. Living up to Mrs. Moses’ “tough” expectations may not seem to be one of the most en- joyable experiences in one’s ninth or tenth-grade year of the high school. However, those who have gone on to strive for higher goals almost all agree that the time and effort spent were all well worth their while.

Social Studies The Social Studies department exists not only to inform students about major historical events, migration of people and the formation of government, but also focuses its attention on the students. It helps them to understand who they are, how people have related to one another in the past, and how the environment can change. These goals are introduced in three years of course work that are required for all students. In their last year, seniors may take their choice of electives offered by the department. The department is headed by Laurence C. Rainey. 95 Wesley Knapp: Physics, Academic Head — Science. Ross G. MacKinnon: Chemistry 11, Advanced 10, Key Club, J.V. Basketball. The Science Corner Is the science department planning on doing anything new this year? If this is a ques- tion you are asking, then this is for you. This year the science department has purchased new computer software and a lazer for the physics lab for use in lazer optics. There is also the green house that teachers and students have built. The science department is planning on teaching students different growing habits and temperature monitoring of different plants, using the green house. This year there are students working on science projects that will be entered in the New York State Energy Office’s science competition. By starting these things the science department is trying to present science not as a mere body of facts but basically as a continuing process by which men and women seek to understand the nature of the physical and biological world. It is trying to help students develop and sharpen their reasoning abilities and problem-solving skills. It also tries to help students better understand the field of science and the role of scientists and engineers in society. Gregory R. Olson: Chemistry 11-1, 11-2, Freshman Soccer, Varsity Basketball.

You try not to look confused but there is no hope. You're called on. and out of desperation you yell out an answer. You then look at the teacher, and disgruntled, he looks back at you. But with the help of the mathematics teachers you somehow survived the last unit and passed the test. In Scotia's varied Math program you can choose from remedial mathematics to advanced placement calculus. The new integrated regents math program will be taking the place of the old regents sequence system. The math teachers have been using a different approach to their program by using computers to teach their students. The Math Department is aptly chaired by Mr. Joseph Kavanaugh So. the next time you arc confused in class, just stay with it and hang tough. Barbara E. Hancr: Math MR. Math 10-2. Math lll-R. Philip M.

Computer Math I, II. Trigonometry. Computer Math What course of study in the high school has increased 70 per- cent in one year? It is the same course that has only been in ex- istence for five-years — Computer Math. When this program started, there was only the Computer Math I class. Three years ago. the Computer Math II class was proposed. In the past year, 50 percent of the students who took Computer Math I decided to increase their skill in Computer Math II. As a result of the increase in enrollment, there has been an ex- pansion to a larger room. The number of computers has gone from four to eight in the past year. The expansion of the computer facilities hopes to benefit not only the math department, but all departments in school. As other departments gradually get interested in computers, they will have a lab in which to work. You won’t be accepted or rejected from college based on what computer programming experience you have; however, if you’re going into a math or science field, certainly computer program- ming experience is beneficial. There is presently a proposal to implement an advanced place- ment computer programming course for the 1983-1984 school year. This program will offer a certain number of college credits depending on how well you do on the advanced placement exam. On the other end of the scale, next year there will be a computer course designed for students who are not as strong in mathematics. In addition to physical facilities, Scotia-Gienville has one of the strongest computer programs in the area due to the expertise of the personnel in the department. Of the eight teachers in the math department, four are capable of teaching computer programming. The chairman of the math department, Mr. Kavanaugh. wouldn’t be suprised to see the enrollment increase even more next year. 99 Santa McGuire and his elves, Mrs. Marotta and Mrs. Smith.

Health Scotia Glenville's Health department has a great program, in which one can learn CPR, mouth-to-mouth resuscitation, first aid dealing with small cuts, burns, and maybe even a bit of how to splint a fracture or broken bone. This course will also help you learn how to take care of your body and what foods arc good for you and what the foods contain that you cat every day. This course is taught by three very skilled people: Mr. Sharpe whom we share with the junior high, Mrs. Miner who also teaches Biology, and Ms. Gcrmond who is replacing Mrs. Tammer who is on maternity leave. We also have Mrs. Migliore who is our school nurse and is always there for our special problems. So as the old saying goes, if you have your health, you have everything!

There are-several activities offered in the Physical Ed Depart- ment, from which students can choose. Some of these activities include skiing, weightlifting, racketball and flag football.

Take home economics courses given at our one and only Scotia-Glenville High School. There are many courses that you can take to learn about human development like “Child Psychology and Work- ing With Children.

Well, believe it or not all of these are made right here in our in- dustrial arts department. The industrial arts department, headed by Mr. Walter Pryne, offers a variety of courses, including woodworking, printing, metal shop, architec- tural drawing, ceramics and a summer driver education program. Courses such as printing provide much practical experience with various projects from the elementary and junior high schools.

Joe Chalk has been his symbol for rewards and punishments for 11 years When I interviewed Mr Festine, he said that his freshman classes have talked about Joe. but they hadn't met him in person yet Joe Chalk recently rewarded one of the classes because he thought they were doing really well and deserved a break Mr. Fcstmc has been a freshman English teacher for 11 years. He likes teaching the freshmen because they are “fresh'' and excited about things, and they don't have that laid back ho-hum attitude some of the older kids have. Besides being an excellent English teacher. Mr. Festine, a self taught photographer, is the photography ad- viser for the yearbook With Mr Festme't strong interest in photography he has made it more than a hobby He has been interested in photography for about five years, the first two years being spent reading all the materials on photography he could set his hands on. Another hat worn by Mr Fcstmc is that of girls’ varsity basketball cuach. At first he coached the freshman girls' basketball, then the J.V.. and now the varsity. It is obvious he enjoys coaching Mr Festine has had the same girls from freshmen to varsity which makes it easier and more enjoyable for both the players and the coach As a possible future goal Mr. Festine secs teaching and coaching on the college level because he has a strong love for both We at Scotia are lucky to have a man with so many talents who � s so willing to share them. How can you not believe in Joe Chalk? Of course he dies; it’s a tragedy! Do you use the large chocolate chips or the small ones? Now that's a creative excuse! Out of here!

Mrs. Bethka, Mrs. Hcdden and Mrs. Reynolds pro- vide valuable support to both teachers and students. Agnes Hcdden: Resource Room Karen A. Radliff: Special Education. Freshman Class. New Kid on the Block By: Wendy Huff Of all the changes made over the summer of 1982, one that was certainly a bonus for Scotia-Glenvillc High was the addition of a specialized center run by Miss Karen Radliff. The center is referred to as a “self-contained class' for students that want individualized attention in their school sub- jects. There were approximately ten students enrolled in this program this past year. After attending this class, most of the students went to BOCES or other classes. “The New Kid on the Block is an appropriate title for the teacher of this new program: not only is she young at heart but her room is located on a corner. Pleased with her new occupation. Miss Radliff especially likes the close student-teacher relationship and friendly atmosphere she has encountered at Scotia. The only regret that she has is that she has not yet met a lot of other students outside of her classroom. One of the reasons for this is because of all the work she has been doing to organize the room. Even as she spoke she was opening boxes of books and various supplies that would be put on shelves and in drawers for her students to use later. Miss Karen Radliff is a definite plus as an addition to our faculty here at Scotia-Glenville. This is one “new kid that is go- ing to make it. 107 AV — Tomorrow’s Education Today Located right in the middle of A-wing. set off near a strange yellow road that winds its way into a colorful mural, is the door to one of the most useful departments in the school. The Audio-Visual Department, manned by student volunteers and headed by Peter J. Terzian, allows students and teachers to keep in contact with the outside world. Students use the department to learn by watching the filmstrips, movies, and video tapes that are available through the school system. Many times you have probably walked past this room on your way to an English class and noticed the small piles of projectors, record players and cassette players that fill the floor. This is equipment that other schools send the A.V. department for repairs. Equipment servicing, transparencies, laminations and video taping are all services of- fered by the Audio-Visual department. The Scotia-Glenville Communications Club stems from this department. This club includes the Video Group and the Stage Crew. Scotia's Audio-Visual department does more than just help the school. It educates interested students in the field of mass media. Students must learn responsibility, respect and how to use their imaginations. Now that's a real A.V. head! Peter J. Terzian: Audio-Visual. Communications Club, AV Assistants, Video Group. Stage Crew. Bathroom Monitors Bathroom monitors were an important part of the school year. This year two very nice, polite, and greatly appreciated people, Mrs. Bacchi and Mr. Ruchalski rotated from bathroom to bathroom during the day. They made the bathroom a pleasant place to be. 108 Terri Moran: Head Librarian. Look It Up in the Library One of the biggest thrills of study hall is to sign out to the Scotia-Glenville High School Library. Although we will all miss the presence of Miss Wierzbowski due to her retirement, Mrs. Theresa Moran is a pleasant addition to our staff of librarians. The library consists of fifteen thousand volumes of reference materials. You can ex- pect that when you complain of a “lack of resource materials,” your teacher will pro- bably direct you to the library. In the library a student can also enjoy reading one of over two hundred magazines or, if so inclined, read a three thousand page reference book. Also, among our library staff is the library clerk, Mrs. Kristel, and the teacher’s aide, Mrs. Slivka. The wealth of knowledge in the high school library is the reason many students keep coming back. Sharon Kristel: Library Secretary. Carol Slivka: Teacher Assistant, Library. 1 n g Christine Festine: Reading 9-12, English 10-2, Indoor Track Assistant. This 'h unit remedial course provided assistance for students who demonstrated special educational needs in the area of reading. The classes met on an alternating day basis and had a maximum enrollment of ten students per section. The instructor provided se- quential skills in the areas of word attack, vocabulary development, comprehension and study skills through instructional grouping as well as individualized remediation. Students developed effective strategies needed to increase comprehension and study skills within the content areas. 109 Those Who Serve in Many Ways Row I: William Burnham, Richard Kruk, Earl Pederson.

It all paid off at the end with the Tartans' vie tory in the class B sectional game against Queensbury. Scotia overcame an enormous Queensbury team and trounced them soundly 21-0, with one touchdown by Jamie Mickle and two by Todd Hammer filling in for the injured Sean Baker. The season opened up strong with a victory at Bethlehem, then a nar- row loss at home to arch-rival Burnt Hills. The team then won four straight against Saratoga, Colonie. Shaker, and Niskyuna. They then lost a tough game against Albany Academy but bounced back to beat Guilderland. The team lost the final game of the season to Columbia in a mistake filled contest. Many strong performances were turned in this year. Phil Gamachc and Scan Baker were the 1-2 punch of Scotia’s running attack with Scan Baker gaining 1,000 yards and Phil Gamachc not far behind. Jamie Mickle started as Quarterback and received protection from the front line which consisted of tackles Mark Delos and David Addison, Guards John Zabielski and John Pagiotas, Center Jim Denney, and Tight End Mike Cremo. The Defense held strong all year with such strong players as Mike Large, David Addison, Don Simmons. Brian Clune, Jim Mastraccio, Phil Gamache and John Zabielski. The Secondary which only let up five touchdowns consisted of Chris Saniilli. Mike Zcglen, Matt Cater, and Paul DiSorbo. Last but not least let us not forget the players who did a great job fill- ing in for the many injured starters all year. Captains: Randy Angers, Phil Gamache. Row I Gregg Dobert. Matt Cater.

Football The 1982 season of the junior varsity squad was a learning experience. Coaches Dick Causey and Dave Murray did an outstanding job teaching these young players the game and preparing them for the future. Team captains Brian Davenport and John Bcrghammcr gave the team a lot ol spirit. The team came a long way in four months. They won their first game and then had a tough spell until they beat Niskayuna in their sixth game, ending their season with Columbia. Their record, 3-4-1. Their im- provement in individual skills and as a team was excellent. The best game of the season was a 34-8 victory over Guilderland.

Our hearts beat high with rapture as we see our colors fair, in our work, as in our pleasure, for our high school we w ill fight, as we cheer for dear old Scotia, and the crimson and the while. These words, Scotia’s alma mater, should sound familiar to all who attend basketball and football games. We arc led in this sing along by a group of enthusiastic girls — our cheerleading squad The Varsity squad has Linda Pelham for captain with Patty Ehring as co-captain. Linda has been a football cheerleader for three years. She said that she likes being a cheerleader because she loves to be at football games. As captain. Linda has such duties as setting up meetings, telling the girls what cheers to practice, and figuring out where each girl will be positioned in every cheer. Some people think of cheerleaders as socialites who are just in the way making noise at games. But to Linda, chccrlcading is a sport. She said, “We arc there for a reason, to get the crowd excited about the game which in turn helps the players ' Linda also said that the squad practices, like any other sport, at least twice a week. Cheerleaders have been a tradition at Scotia-Glcnvilie High, and due to the dedica- tion of girls like Linda Pelham, they will always play an important role in Scotia's athletic events. 118 We can’t have a serious game of leap frog.” Nicky Bcrtasso Missy Porter Trade Stankevich And Brook! “Don’t Forget Maria.’ Carolyn Silverthorn, Brook Salisbury, Maria Marx, Michele Gizzi, Nicky Bcrtasso.

Boys’ Soccer Regional Champs “Oh my gosh, the boys’ varsity soccer team won again. This is something that is new to the school this year. In past years the boys have struggled to win a few games. This year was a different story, “a storybook season in fact in the words of the journalists. Coached by Cliff Heddcn, the team finished the season with a 12-8-3 record. Cap- tains were Ray Colucciello and Mike Oot. The team had a strong offense led by Jeff Barker, Paul Laniewski, and John Chcrnoch. The midfield was dominated by Greg Shaver, Gregg Gatta. and Billy Knowles. The defense was led by Ray Coluc- ciello with support from Mike Guzzo, Vic Caisse, Mike Oot. and Evan Lewis. The Tartans went the farthest ever this year. Not only did they win sectionals and regionals, they went to the state semi-finals on Long Island after an early morning send off by the students and faculty. The Tartans will remember the victory over Burnt Hills (3-1), South Glens Falls (2-1) and over undefeated Nyack (2-1). The Tartan squad has many boys returning next year and looks toward another successful season. ■ Do it, do it, do it!” Palombo saves the day! Boys’ J.V. Soccer The 1982 season was one of accomplishment and pride for Scotia- Glenvillc’s J.V. boys soccer team. Combining both a powerful offense and a tough defense the boys were led to a 5-9-1 record by Coach Pat O’Brian. The team was a solid machine that was greatly assisted by the defense of Scott Swerc and goalie Doug Mannion. Offensively Rick Cornell put on an impressive show of skill and talent. Individual efforts arc not the only things that make up a team. This year’s J.V. team worked well together and showed signs of becoming an excellent varsity team in the future.

They set a school record of 10 goals scored against an opponent. The team had trouble finishing the ball, but Mr. Olson noted that they had a strong defense. The Tartan freshmen look to be the nucleus of a good strong team in the future. Girls’ Soccer Goes the Distance The 1982 Girls’ Varsity Soccer had a very exciting year. They were crowned Regional Champs for the second year in a row. The team’s record reflected the talent of all the players and ended the year with a 16-4-1 record. Along with class B sectional and regional titles, the team also won the New Lebanon Tournament. The leading scorers were Tammy Carberg, Donna Leffler. and Kathy Baidy. The team’s captains this year were Ann Singsheim, Tricia Meacham and Maureen McDermott. With only four seniors graduating there appears to be a promising future for the Girls’ Varsity Soccer.

The strong defense was led by forwards Robin Thompson, Wen- dy Barker, Kelly Connelly, and Demetria Gallop. The entire of- fense was responsible for the high scoring season. The girls’ tight defense was led by goalkeeper Amy Male while fullbacks Sue Rickard and Kathy Davidson held the opponents to under one goal per game.

With flats and throws, back passes and sudden death (lick offs, our Field Hockey team proved tough this year. Miss Ben- nett's team proved themselves against formidable foes such as Shaker, Burnt Hills, and Shenendchowa. The team’s record was seven wins and seven losses which carried them into sectionals, where, despite an incredible effort by the team, they were defeated by Bethlehem in the first round The team had many key players and outstanding contributions on both offense and defense. Offensive play was led by Cheri Marinelto and Becky Bulson while the defense was led by outstanding plays from Linda Koebcl, Carolyn Litynski. and goalie Linda Feurer. In the past, the tough team for Scotia to beat has been Burnt Hills. Not this year. Scotia was triumphant both times the two teams met as was the ease with Shenendahowa. The team is looking forward to another suc- cessful season with many returning players. Row 1. Gina Frament, Brenda Brown, Michele Woods, Linda Koelbel, Jenny Legg, Cheri Marinello.

The Captains, Laurel Botsford. Chris Sisario, and Margaret Tyler helped to hold the team together. The team learned more than hockey and held several outside events; a bike hike, a pizza party after a game, breakfast at McDonalds, and two barbeques.

The entire swim team was enthusiastic about organizing a competitive team. This was evident because of the spirit and effort put forth by every member. The swim team was very young this year with one-third of its members coming from the junior high. Even so, every member showed great potential. Watch out — they’ve only just begun!!! 135 lOL Varsity Hoop The Tartans led by captains Greg Shaver and Jim Morrow had an up and down year. They showed greatness at limes but hit a long slump through the middle of the year. Still, they managed a respec- table finish and are looking for- ward to the sectionals. Among highlights of the year were Greg Shaver's numerous dunks and the striking victory over Niskayuna with the impressive “triangle and two defense. Instrumental in this year’s performance were seniors Jamie Mickle, who was the area’s top scorer, Sean Baker, and Barry Rapavv. The juniors included Kel- ly Ledbetter, Gregg Gatta, Evan Lewis, and Dan Thompson. These juniors will hopefully lead Coach Olson to another successful season next year.

Frosh B’Ball This year the Freshman Hoopsters were coached by someone new. Coach Nielson led the Tartans to a successful season. The lead scorer for the team was Shawn Fyvie, and the team had tReir height from Mike Van Heusen, Norman Young, and Matt McLaughlin. The guards were effective and knowing when to shoot and when to pass. Next year’s team will have an advan- tage because of their three eighth graders: Chris Staszak, Brett Rapavy, and Wesley Knapp. Good luck to all of them. The Lucky Ones: Varsity Cheerleading “Only The Lucky Ones! You were “lucky” if you saw the Varsity Cheerleaders dance to this song spotlight night. Throughout the year they made up new cheers and a routine for the last game. At times when we were behind in score they would cheer us on to victory. Leading the Varsity Cheerleaders this year were seniors, captain — Michele Prusko and co-captain — Denise Graham. The season ended but it will be remembered as “The Lucky Ones” who got to see this tremendous show! Back: Jessica Dietzman, Bonnie Brown, Michele Prusko, Patty Wagner.

Pep Squad Junior Varsity Cheerleaders this year cheered with excite- ment and extreme originality. They made up many new cheers and moves for every game! The leaders of this tremendous group of girls were captain — Nicky Bertasso and co-captain — Michele Gizzi. Whether behind or ahead the J.V. Cheerleaders kept up their enthusiasm and spark!

Coach Fred Festine. “LeClair looks for an easy two. 144 Outta’ my way!” Fcurcr makes the attempt.” Varsity B’ball The Girls’ Varsity Basketball team was coached this year by Mr. Fred Festine. Although the team posted few wins, they worked very hard to achieve the goals of Coach Festine. “There was a strong desire not to quit and they hustled to stay in the games. It was difficult to control the boards on offense and defense since they're such a small team. If all the juniors on this year's team return next year, paired with a few players from this year’s very successful J.V. team, Scotia’s Girls’ Varsity Squad should be a team going to the Class B Sectionals.” Judging from the team’s desire to win, one can believe that Coach Festine’s goals will be met next year! “Tartans get the tap. Girls’ JV B’ball In his first year of coaching, Mr. Don Pallozzi led the Girls' J.V. Basketball team to a successful season. Coach Pallozzi began the season with specific goals in mind: good ball handling skills, familiarity with basketball terminology, knowledge of zones and strong defensive and offensive know- how ... in general, good fundamentals of basket- ball.” He felt everyone made a good effort and the girls’ strong sense of togetherness helped the team to achieve a “good, positive feeling about themselves.” Although Coach Pallozzi says he met with a “little bit of frustration,” seeing his coaching efforts pay off brought a sense of satisfaction and a lot of fun! This satisfaction was surely felt by the team and also reflected in their impressive record. Front: Debbie Clark, Kathy Davidson. Kelly Connelly. Middle Coach D. Palloz i.

One extremely beneficial technique in- troduced this season by Coacll O'Brian was Cybernetics, or “the process of learning through mental pictures “After a slow start, the team showed marked improvement. Toward the end of the season there was noticeable improvement despite the fact the girls were outsi ed and met with many teams with more experience. ' Coach O'Brian said All in all, Coach O'Brian feeb the year was successful in one sense .. seeing everyone enjoy themselves made the season a truly rewarding experience Friends forever. Wake up you guys. Cheap laces” 147 Gymnastics This year was a great success for the Gymnastics team as a whole. In its fourth season, the varsity level was very strong. The team was led by Becca Mace, Jeff Denney, Krista Schaeffer, Diana Buhrmaster and Kathie Haher. The all around team performances were very strong, ex- emplified by Becca Mace, Jeff Denney, Diana Buhrmaster and Kathie Haher, who all gave the team their effort and concentration.

This first year for a Scotia swim team proved to be an enjoyable one. Mead Coach Jack Anderson noted that the team worked well together. Most team members were underclassmen so prospects look good for the future. The captain of the team was sophomore Tom Grogan. Warren Harrily and Chris Mcssitt were top com- petitors in the 200 and the 500 free style. Cap- tain Tom Grogan, Steve Giaquinto, and Roger Mountford did a good job in the 100 breast stroke. Dan Simmons and Mike Stcc flew in the 100 butterfly. Chris Brothers and Scott Pcu swam well in the 50 free style. Ron Rcnni did well in the 100 back stroke. The swim team has proved that Scotia-Glenville High School can be competitive, without the access of their own pool. There’s nothing like skiing nowadays! 149 Front: Coach Sheridan.

The girls team was filled with many outstanding talents including Donna Leffler, Terri Zanta and Tricia Meacham. Each set individual records as well as a combined effort in relay records. The boys also had a very strong team. It was led by Tom Furphy in the triple jump; Kurt Bliss and Mike Large in Pole vault and Shot put; and Ken Vanvorst in Pole vault and High jump. Although we are losing some of these outstanding seniors. Don- na Leffler, Tricia Meachem, Dave Turnbull and Mike Large, we still have much talent coming up in the future for our indoor track team. 151 Returning from a successful 1982 season, the Boys Varsity Volleyball has come back for an even more suc- cessful one. The team was led by seniors Gregg Dobert, Rob Dawes, Bob Morris, John DeNcuville and foreign students Mustafa Taner and Jan Podehl. Co-Captains Bob Morris and Jeff Barker led the team in setting a precedent for victory for upcoming Scotia teams. Return- ing Coach Jim Bailey was pleased with his Tartans performance.

With co-captains Ricci Cornell and Neil Dcsormeaux and the leadership of Coach Jim Bailey, the team enjoyed success despite many newcomers. They have a challenge to live up to the laurels of the varsity squad. 153 Girls’ Varsity V’ball The girls’ varsity volleyball had a trying time this year, despite the fact that they had new uniforms. The team was coached by Mrs. Wendy O’Conner who really did what she could to help the team improve. Many players demonstrated outstanding play including: captains Karen Burke and Christie Hall, Michele Hannon, Lisa LeClair and Tracy Hamilton. This year's team will be remembered always, and the Acropolis staff wishes them luck in what they do in the future. Sitting: Lisa LeClair, Michele Hannon. Brook Salisbury.

Girls’ Volleyball The girls' junior varsity volleyball team enjoyed a victorious season through the coaching of Mrs. Wendy O’Conner. The team had a tough season, competing against top teams such as Shencndahowa and Shaker. There were many close games, and team captains Debbie Clark and Wendy Barker led the squad both on and off the court. X.C. Skiing Plagued by no snow until January, Coach Hitchcock’s team spent many days jogging five to eight miles after school and work- ing on wheel skis. They even resorted to old Indian customs, and performed a “Snow Dance” early one morning, whose efforts were very successful. Carolyn Litynski and Mike Bowers led the team in this year’s meet.

The team led by Captain. Senior Jim Denney, showed a steady improvement throughout the season. An outstanding group of underclassmen led by John Denney guided the team to exciting vic- tories over Lansingburg and Guildcrland. John Den- ney finished the dual meet season undefeated and captured his second consecutive Surburban Council Championship. Other wrestlers who placed in various tournaments over the course of the season were Dan Morclli, John Monte, Gordon Cooper. Alex Salvagno, and Jim Denney. Next year’s team looks to be one of the best in recent years with only seniors Jim Denney and Dan Farley graduating. Although lacking a full JV team, a number of individuals enjoyed successful seasons. Fran Sullivan, Bob O’Brcy, Jeff McPhail, George Kephart, and Bill Pierson all had winning records.

Juniors Under the guidance of advisor Mr. Scipione and class of- ficers: president Sal Pariante, vice president Tracie Stankevich, secretary Karen Smolyn, and treasurer Jessica Dietzman, the junior class had an active' year preparing themselves for their high school finale next year. The most im- portant of these was the pre-holiday jewelry sale which paid for a large portion of the yearly bills. Academically, 11th grade is probably the most important for a high school student. It is the time to begin looking at prospec- tive colleges. Juniors also take the S.A.T. exams in May. In ad- dition, they most contend with course finals and regents at the years end. Most juniors have from three to five regents exams to finish out their busy year. Good luck to next year’s seniors, the class of '84. JUNIOR CLASS OFFICERS — Front. Treasurer Jessica Dietzman.

Where am I!? Oh gosh! I’m lost! I’m going to be late! What does this sound like to you? A typical freshman maybe? You guessed it. However, possibly this particular type of freshman may be a part of the past. As was recently discovered, the class of 1986 seems to have it pretty well together. President Kelly Stafford, Vice President Luci Apollo, Treasurer Kelly Connelly and Secretary Michele Scirocco led by Advisor Miss Karen Radliff arc well organized and on the ball. They know what they want and how they arc going to get it. Although coming into the high school this year was a big step for these young adults, they seemed pleased with the changes they discovered. Faced with more activities than they could choose to do they had a hard time narrowing down their options. With careful consideration and thought they picked programs offered to them that suited them. With many fund raisers planned such as pizza and candy sales, the class of '86 is looking forward to a spectacular Senior year! From: Kerry Johnston. Cmhy Kas ubski Back Bridget Corcoran.

Directed by Mr. Linden Gregory, the band participated in many school-related activities. In red and white uniforms the band marched at all of the home foot- ball games, the Schenectady Christmas Parade, and the Scotia Memorial Day parade. The 1982-83 school year found Kamclla Korthas as Drum Majorette, keep- ing everyone in step as they marched. Not only did the Scotia-Glenville band march, but they performed show tunes, jazz, holiday music, and held three concerts throughout the school year. And once again, out of the band came the selective group of talented musi- cians the Stage Band. Also led by Mr. Gregory, the Stage Band consisted of students with many musical talents. Players consisted of students playing sax- ophones. trumpets, french horns, drums, guitars, and the piano. And following with tradition, the Stage Band played jazz pieces, many of which allowed members to be highlighted. The Stage Band performed at the Turkey Talent Show, the Christmas Assembly, and various other shows. With all the activities, you can see why this year's band and Stage Band were a smashing success.

He has taken ninety students of a multitude of playing abilities and combined them to form the Scotia-Glenville High School Band. He is a miracle-worker. The 1982-83 Band has upheld the school's high reputation of good, quality music. He worked on his own free time to organize the Scotia-Glenville Jazz Ensemble. He does this voluntarily with no extra pay. He has given the students something that is of interest to them. We, the students, really appreciate what he has done for us. Music teaches one dedication, endurance and patience. This man is an excellent example of all those attributes. Thank you, Mr. Gregory.

Chordcttcs For many years the Scotia-Glenvillc Choralaires, under the direction of Dr. Henry Sullivan, have been delighting area music lovers of all ages. Their many in-school performances include participation in the Talent Show, the Christmas Assembly, the winter concert and Christmas caroling from class to class. In addition, they give many performances at neighboring schools and throughout the community. Prominent among their activities is the spring spectacular of Songtime, the result of several months of hard work. Last, but not least, is the Choralairc Tour, during which the Choralaires travel to many other schools to perform. The Chordbenders are a very important part of the Choralaires. The group specializes in barbershop harmony with a broad repertoire ranging from “Jingle Bells to “Coney Island Baby.” This year the Choralaircs celebrated their seventh birthday, which is lucky for us all. The Chordettes are the feminine version of the Chordbenders. Their style is also barbershop harmony and their repertoire is just as broad as their masculine counterparts. This year at the Talent Show thay sang a memorable rendition of “Young Love. and the same may be said for their Christmas ren- dition of “The Christmas Song. This year is the fifth anniversary for the Chordettes. 217 Concert Choir This year's concert choir was under the split direction of Miss Buehler and Mrs. Paulson. Miss Buehler who came to Scotia-Glenvillc as a student teacher in 1981-82 school year stepped in to teach first semester for Mrs. Paulson who was on sabbatical. The choir’s repertoire consisted of popular songs like “The Body Electric from Fame to traditional songs which were performed at their winter and spring concerts. Many of these talented young singers will later go on to become Choralaires. Top: Becky Guzior. Katie Kehoe, Daphne Long. Middle: Mindy Van Valkcn- burgh, Don Henry.

ACTIVITIES Scotia Students Active and Talented Tartan Turkey Talent On Wednesday, November 24, the annual Tartan Turkey Talent Show was put on by students and faculty of Scotia-Glenville High School in the auditorium. An act to which all students gave enthusiastic applause was put on by the faculty. First were two dance numbers consisting of “Splish Splash” (with an amusing ap- pearance by Peter Petrillose in a bath tub!) and the se- cond, “Blue Suede Shoes.” The third skit performed was the “Duke of Earl” portrayed by Pete Petrillose singing to Joyce Vernon. Their grand finale consisted of Paul Benson riding a Moped and singer Debbie Marcil perfor- ming “Leader of the Pack.” Principal Richard McGuire came out between acts and showed off his newly acquired skills with the violin. Also received well by the audience was Nori Kawahata (on the piano) joined by the whole soccer team singing “Tiny Bubbles.” To add to the hilarity, Mike Bubbles” Paro strolled across the stage blowing bubbles! The crowd went into hysterics and gave a hardy applause. Soloists among the performers were Julie Pieper sing- ing “I Got A Funny Feeling”; Rose Bergin performing “Song Bird”; Linda Koelbel singing the theme from Chicago “67, 68” and The Tracks of My Tears ; and Karen Burke singing It Doesn’t Matter Any More.” Another popular act was a rock band called the “Suspects, which displayed their talents while playing “Wrath Child. A highlight among the group was Peter Guare, a resident teacher of Scotia. A bizarre act to invade the Scotia-Glenville stage saw students in miniskirts, frizzy hair, wild makeup and cellophane dresses. Of course — The Rocky Horror Dancers. This 13-member group filled the stage with ac- tion as they jumped and danced to “The Time Warp.” Other dances this year included the Varsity Football Cheerleaders dancing to “The Eye of The Tiger” and jazz dancers performing to “Star Cruising.” To add a bit of variety, Brenda Colleton performed a ballet. The Tartan Turkey Talent Show is an annual activity given before Thanksgiving Vacation. It is a time when the entire school unites together to give thanks. Following with tradition, “America” and “We Gather Together closed the 1982 Tartan Turkey Talent Show. 223 Ever wonder what AFS stands for? These letters represent the words American Field Service. What many people don’t realize is that these three words can have great impact on the life on an individual or an entire society. The American Field Service is an international organization dedicated to bringing peace, through understanding to our world. AFS achieves this goal by sponsoring students in a period of living abroad and hosting foreign students who live for a period of time in our country. This year Scotia-Glenville AFS chose Amy Boyd and John Crane to represent our school and the country abroad during the summer of 1983. AFS is cur- rently hosting a foreign student, Mustafa Taner, from Turkey. AFS activities go far beyond the exchange of students. During the annual AFS weekend in October, club members got together with host siblings from neighbor- ing schools and the AFS students from Brazil, Australia, France, Italy, Japan, and Spain. The Christmas spirit was given an international flavor as the result of a multi- lingual caroling party. All this and more are what AFS docs to bring peace, understanding and hope for the future to the people of our world. Gawd, she’s beautiful. A.F.S.

Mustafa lives in Istanbul, the largest city of his home country, Turkey. During his stay in this country, Mustafa lived with the Chambers family. Last year, Mustafa graduated from his high school in Turkey, so he considered this year to be a vacation of sorts even though he took Calculus, Physics, and Ger- man IV. When Mustafa arrived in Scotia in late September, he had only one problem; he spoke very little English. Although most Turkish students learn English in high school. Mustafa opted to take German instead. Thus, when he came to our school he had only two months of English. But with all of the tutoring by his family, teachers and friends, plus his ever present Turkish-English dictionary, he gradual- ly overcame the language barrier. Over the past school year, Mustafa was involved in many school activities. He was. of course, in AFS as well as chorolaires. He was also an important member of this year’s regional championship soccer team as well as the very successful varsity volleyball team. When he’s not at school or home studying, Mustafa spends his spare time with his friends at parties or at the movies. His musical tastes arc somewhat different than some of his classmates. He says he doesn’t like new wave styles or punk music but prefers more mainstream music. Mustafa has also learned to play the classical guitar which he plays in his free time. When Mustafa returns to Turkey, he plans to go to college to pursue an elec- trical engineering career. He says he may return to this country to get his master's degree. We will all miss you Mustafa and we wish you the best of luck. Mustafa wishes all of his friends the best, Turkiye’ Den Sevgilerle (With love from Turkey). 225 Mrs. and Mr. Chambers.

The Spanish Club again hosted the International Dinner, which drew tremendous participation from the students. Officers included Caro Mercado as President, Mike Airhart as Vice President, Sue Shea as Secretary, Joanne Holtman as Treasurer and Dan Farley as Activities Co- ordinator. This year's Spanish Club altered their plans for the end of the year trip. In- stead of going to Boston the club members will travel to New York to experience its various cultural exhibits.

Well it is an organization of students who are interested in learning more about the French language and culture. People in the French Club par- ticipate in activities such as the Interna- tional Dinner, which has foods from all over the world. To get in to this club you must have taken at least two years of French. And have an understanding of the language. The French Club does all sorts of things to raise funds so that they can go on Field trips. For instance, they sold Christmas calendars. In the spring the French Club had a Cabaret, which included singing and dancing. Field trips have included Boston and Mon- treal. To join this club there’s a small membership fee of $2.00 which is not much to ask for so much. The forty French Club members meet every other Tuesday after school. Advisor, Mrs. Zebrowski, hoped the members received a better appreciation of the French language and culture. Row 1: Carolyn Litynski. Row 2: Amy Boyd. Row 3: Jennifer Simpson. Moira Maclean.

The art club did a superb job painting Christmas decorations on the windows of the Rt. 50 McDonald’s. Art club also made the Santa and eight dane deer for the High School lobby at Christmas time. In January and February an eight foot high E.T. was made for the Scotia Cinema to promote the year’s favorite movie. Between big projects the art club worked on in- dividual art projects in a relaxed after school at- mosphere. The goal of art club is to have fun with art and promote art in the community.

The principle of Archery Club is to promote good, safe shooting skills for its members. This is done through the careful supervision of Mr. Tersigni, club advisor.

Under the guidance of A.V. Technician, Peter J. Terzian, the club members became involved in the many facets of production. Many of the Communications Club members arc Audio Visual Assistants, who work during studyhalls to help keep this school running smoothly. The Communications Club has two main clubs that form under it. Video Group and Stage Crew. Many of the members belong to both activities, such as filming sports, and the Stage Crew helps with the technical aspects of stage production. The Communications Club had many goals during the course of the year. Their biggest goal was that of purchasing a microcomputer for the department. The club sponsored many fund raising dances for that cause. We hope to see the Communications Club grow in the future as more in- terest is generated by our growing society.

Pardon me!” 231 International Dinner: A Huge Success On the evening of December 9, 1982, the Spanish, French and German clubs held the International Dinner. Each club provided entertainment; the French club’s skit included a visit from Santa Claus. In addition, John Crane sang O Holy Night” in French, accompanying himself on guitar. The Spanish club contributed its traditional pinata, and the Ger- man club performed a skit. Food was provided by the students. There were many varieties of foreign foods including escargot. The French Club also contributed the Galette des Rois, a cake which contained a token. The recipient was king or queen for the night. Karen Buczkowski got the token and elected Greg Shaver as king. Attendance was good. Many students who take a language but do not belong to a club were there. Mr. Johnson, the vice principal, was there with his wife, as well as Mr. McGuire. Caro Mercado was the chairman, as well as MC. The dinner was successful thanks to her leadership. The King and Queen of Marigold.

What do they do? Not too many people in this school know what DECA Club docs, or what its purpose is. The real purpose behind DECA Club is to educate its members on how to behave in the open job market. DECA stands for Distributive Education Clubs of America, and its members participate in regional and global contest levels for different marketing job opportunities such as retailing, salesmanship, job interviewing, homemaking, billboard making and radio advertising. If a participant becomes a finalist in one of the areas of competition, they can compete on a statewide level at the Concorde Hotel in the Catskills. It’s not all fun and games for DECA Club members because the exams they must take and be graded on include questions on general and specialized knowledge, role playing and timed tests. Under the leadership of Mr. James Connolly the members of DECA club find out more about the world of marketing, and about themselves. This year’s club competed well against regional competitors and we hope to see even more interest in future years.

It might even be the natural high you get when you hear the audience applauding the show. Perhaps it's the opening night jitters you get when you walk on stage and sec a “million” eyes staring up at you. It may be the feeling of closeness among the entire cast and knowing that every part, no matter how large, or small, is vital to the show’s success. And maybe it’s looking back and thinking, “Hey, those late night rehearsals were really worth it after all.” Whatever the reason, one thing is for sure — there is something special in the atmosphere of the Drama Club — and there is one lady responsible for all of this. Her name? Theresa Paulson. This dedicated lady spends hundreds of hours on each show — in and out of rehearsals. Between directing the cast, ordering costumes, practicing music, and building the set, Mrs. Paulson was always a productive leader. This year, the Drama Club officers were Wendy Huff as President. Amy Boyd as Vice President, Jenny Draffen as Secretary, and Laura Hollenbeck as Treasurer. Mrs. Paulson, the officers, and the members of the Drama Club took pride in presenting Brigadoon. And to all of those afraid of coming forth and displaying their dramatic talents ... If you could only hear the applause . . 235 Row I: Amy Boyd. Jennifer Draffen.

Well, to answer these questions, one must turn to the student government. The two branches of student government are the Student Senate and class officers. The Student Senate, advised by Mrs. McLane and Mrs. Scagnelli, consists of all homeroom representatives, with Julie Mountain as President, Brenda Brown as Vice President, Louise Wilkinson as Secretary, Rose Ciarmcllo as Treasurer and Linda Pelham as Activities Coordinator. Besides voicing the opinions of the students, the Student Senate plans fund raisers to earn money for graduation, the Senior Banquet, Junior Scnior Balls and sections of the yearbook. The Student Senate also raises money for our foster child (Yolanda) in the Philippines. The WGY Christmas Wish Fund, and the Anti-Vandalism-Incentive-Program. The Student Senate experimented with a new program this year. The Food CO-OP sold food first, second, seventh and eighth periods. Also a student exchange program was enacted with other local schools. In this program students from Scotia-Glenville travel to other local schools to participate in that school's activities. The student government at Scotia-Glenville plays an important part of student life by sup- porting various student activities and providing a link to the students and the school administration.

Key Club is one of the largest service organizations in our high school and widely known around the country and world. When the club began, it was a boys' club, but over the years this has been almost totally reversed with a majority of the members girls. Key Club is a club that promotes development in in- itiative and leadership by holding many projects that arc student organized. The purpose of the club is to provide a service for the school and the community. This year through fund raisers for charity and service projects. Key- Clubbers showed their purpose and had fun at the same time. The club began the year by raising $600 through a garage sale held at the high school. Other fund raisers in- cluded pizza sales, bake sales, coloring book sales and, after a lapse of one year, servant day. Perhaps even more entertaining is the annual dance marathon held to raise money for the American Cancer Society. This event has been recognized highly by the Society through their award to the club of the New York Division Youth Against Cancer Award for outstanding contributions. During the Marathon the students dance for 24 hours to raise an annual average of over $5,000. The club also held an annual day of work in the fall to help elderly citizens clean their yards. Also the club held an annual picnic for handicapped kids in Collins Park this past spring. Maybe the best thing about being a Key Club member is seeing the smiles ... Row 1: Colleen Symons.

Are you a junior or senior and is this familiar voice that of Mrs. Marcil? If you fill this bill, you arc a definite candidate for the National Honor Society. During the school year, teachers are busy at work analyzing the qualifications of juniors and seniors for admittance to NHS. This year the selection process is being revised so that no student is overlooked. Besides keeping an 85% average or better, students must possess other honorable qualities such as leadership and character. Ten percent of the senior class and fifteen percent of the junior class arc then chosen as members. They arc inducted by a special candlelight ceremony in the spring. The 1982-83 Society is under the guidance of advisor Mrs. Marcil and officers: President. Kevin Licata; Vice President, Moira Maclean; Secretary, Carolyn Litynski; and Treasurer Julie Mountain. NHS tradi- tionally hosts Meet the Teachers Night Also members can be seen tutoring in the Resource Room and selling daffodils for the Cancer Society. Plans arc currently being made to set up activities w hich would get the club more involved in the community. r ‘ JBMMP P OFFICERS — Row 1: Kevin Licata.

Varsity Club Varsity Club Lends a Hand to Scotia Sports: Each year numerous athletes who are at present or have in the past participated in a varsity sport at Scotia come together to form the Varsity Club. Work- ing together under the supervision of Mr. Craig Hitchcock, the athletes assist in the overall sports pro- gram at S-G. Members are responsible for selling pro- grams at football and basketball games, and for get- ting local merchants to purchase ads in the programs. This year the club donated a sum of money for the Dan Pasternak memorial scoreboard. They also planned many social activities such as a “powder puff’ football game. Activities such as this sponsored by the Varsity Club help to raise money so that the sports program at S-G can continue to grow. 241 Vo-Tec: Hands on Experience Two members of the Acropolis staff and Mrs. Vernon were invited to the Albany Vo-Tec Center this past February for their annual Editors day. After a thorough tour of the facilities and a marvelous luncheon prepared by the students, we feel much more knowledgeable about the pro- gram. Ours is one of 45 such cooperative educa- tion programs in the state. Vo-Tec has an enrollment of 74 S-G juniors and seniors. This program enables students to get practical experience as well as book learning for a future career. Vo-Tec students are bussed to one of the four basic centers: The Albany Occupational Center, Schohaire Center, Linton or Mont Pleasant High Schools. At these centers 22 different courses are offered such as drafting, building construction, auto mechanics, welding, printing, commercial foods, electricity, fashion trades, data processing. refrigeration, cosmetology, and practical nursing. According to District Superintendant Dr. Brayden, there arc possibilities to use the cooperative method for providing instruction to small enrollment classes like AP courses, fourth year languages and highly technical courses. Practical nursing has the highest S-G enroll- ment. Guys as well as girls participate in this ex- cellent program. In class the students learn first aid. vital signs, bed baths, charting and other similar techniques. After they learn the basic skills, they are put into the hospital to apply their new knowledge in actual situations. During the summer nursing students spend six weeks working in a clinic. After the six weeks are finished, if the PN has earned a 75 percent average or better and has not missed more than 35 hours, she or he will be capped and become a PN II student. At Linton Vo-Tec auto mechanics is offered. This course helps the students become more familiar with what auto mechanics is really like. The classroom is set up like a repair shop where customers bring their cars to be repaired. The students repair the items and the customers are billed for the parts used to fix the object. The ser- vice is free. This course is designed to allow students to get a job as a parts distributor, service manager, or other related job. However, to be con- sidered a pledged mechanic, further college train- ing and on the job training is required. The Vo-Tec Program is for dedicated students. Some of the students can get jobs right out of high school, while others prefer to further their educa- tion in college. The most important statistic is 90 percent job placement upon graduation. This compares to only 60 for those students not en- rolled in the program or attending college. Keep up the good work Vo-Tec!!!

The 1983 version of the Acropolis was started in the spring of last year, when Mrs. Vernon assembled a group of juniors to work on the staff. The first assignment for all the new staff members was to go out into the community to sell ads. These ads, found in the back of the book, helped to lower the cost of the yearbook to you. This year’s staff sold nearly double the amount of previous years which greatly pleased financial advisor. Miss Nancy Alkonis. When the staff reassembled in September, they broke up in- to the sections on which they wished to work. The section editors, selected by Mrs. Vernon, were responsible for making sure that all the photos, copy assignments, and layouts were completed by staff members on schedule. As you look through this particular yearbook, you’ve prob- ably noticed some new things not found in previous yearbooks, such as the silver graphics in the senior section as well as the Dear Uncle Richie” section and the messages. These were all created by our innovative editors and Mrs. Vernon. We on the yearbook staff sincerely hope you enjoy reading your 1983 Acropolis as much as we did putting it together, and may it always bring back fond memories of Scotia-Glenville High School.

Because of illness, Sandy did not graduate with her class this year, but with her courage and perserverence she will succeed. Her smile and sense of humor are an inspira- tion to us all. Scotia Students to Serve Country A Profile in Courage Every year, Scotia-Gienville pro- duces a number of students who join various branches of the military ser- vices. This year an exceptionally high number have or are planning to enlist in the Armed Forces. This year there was a record number of students. Six planned to join the Marine Corps. The Scotia Marines are Jim Denney, Gregg Dobert, Shayne Figlioia, Bill Gallop, Mike Oot, and Ron Verruto. Scotia students planning to join the Navy are Phil Benner, Carmine luliano and Dave Parillo. Scotia’s contribu- tion to the Army consists of Steve Dehart. Perhaps the reason that so many students joined the service right out of high school is the fact that jobs are so hard to find. Jim Denney said that after graduation from college or high school a person is not guaranteed a job, but with the regular military, he or she is always employed. Some students such as Steve Dehart are joining the service under special pro- grams to save money for a college education later. All of the students surveyed stated that they desired to travel. They feel that the military is a good opportuni- ty to visit foreign lands, learn a skill and get paid all at the same time. Whether or not the service is your bag, you have to give these students credit. They are entering a totally new world where they don’t know what to expect. These students will embark on their duty assignments knowing that they are helping to in- sure our country’s security. Steve Dehart, Ron Verruto, Jim Denney, Bill Gallop.

Basic Training a New Experience The departing ones feel anxiety, nervousness, excitement, but most of all remorse because they have to leave their loved ones behind. It sounds like the departure of soldiers off to war. but it’s only trainees going to basic training. During the summer of 1982, this was experienced by two Scotia Glenvillc seniors. Pvt. Donna Neary and Pvt. Lisa Mertz. Donna completed basic training at Fort Jackson, South Carolina, and Lisa at Fort Dix, New Jersey. The two joined because they felt it would be a great and different experience. Basic training begins at a place called the Reception Station where you arc prepared for what to expect in basic training. It is here that you arc issued your clothing and start to learn your “smart book” (a soldier’s manual), which can be your best friend at times. The Reception Station can be a long dramatic experience as Donna found out. She was held over for two weeks until they found enough girls to make a platoon. When asked what she did. she said, “Detail most of the time. (“Detail” includes doing everything and anything from sweeping and mop- ping to painting and mowing), I also studied my ‘smart book’ and ‘D and C’ (drill and ceremony),” Donna continued. The next step is meeting your sergeant which in itself is a rare experience. Some can be as mean and nasty as the movies portray them while others can be just the opposite. All, however, try to be as tough as they can at the initial meeting. This is the point where a sense of humor comes in handy. You can't take everything seriously and still survive. Donna and Lisa both agree that the highlights were the rifle range, fire with tracers. K.P. duty, making new friends, getting paid, and just being in such a unique situation. The low crawl, getting up at 4:00 a m., inspections, injections, detections, neglections, and guard duty were the low points for both Donna and Lisa. Most people fear basic as the worst thing on earth, but to be truthful, if you give it a chance it can be very enjoyable. Bivouac is a different experience. Camping will never be the same again. Imagine a camping site with pup tents, guards on duty, and sergeants in their beds. All is quiet on the front when all of a sud- den a scream pierces the night. You come out to see what has happened and find the corporal has knocked down someone’s tent for not being set up tightly. Returning to bed you hear a trainee cry- ing. “The corporal took my weapon while I was sleeping because it was unsecured.” Some of the girls actually tied their M-16’s to themselves so they didn’t have to low crawl the next morning to retrieve them. The one day which everyone looks forward to is graduation. It’s something like the senior year of high school, but only more thrilling. You can finally go home in only a few short hours. But then when it’s time to leave and say good-bye to everyone, you find you are reluctant to leave everyone, (even those mean, grouchy sergeants). When Donna and Lisa were asked if they would return to basic and repeat their experience, their reply was, “We would probably do the entire nine weeks of training all over again. 251 Abed, Cherie 187 Acker.

Who is responsible lor designing the display window, and who makes those in- teresting signs? The answer to all these questions is Robin Boston Barron. Robin Barron is the six loot, pipe smoking driver ol the cute little bleck Volkswagon that is always parked outside the theater. He has been connected with Scotia Cinema for over a year and has been responsible lor movies like Poltergiest , Rocky III , Eraserhead , and the popular movie serial, “Rocketman . A one time thespian and stuntman, Robin has had a long theater career. Starting as an usher in a movie house, he became con- nected with a traveling horror show. From there, he became involved with other shows. He performed in Summer Stock, traveling New York State, sometimes even ecting in two different shows the same dayl Robin went on in plays with Frankenstein and Dracula before turning to movies. His repetior includes movies such as “Night ol the Living Dead”, in which he played as both an actor and a stuntman. It was in this movie that he performed his most difficult stunt. Remember the part where the truck burned? Robin played the driver. Due to an injury causing an end to his career as a atuntman, Robin spends his time with other hobbies. He enjoys mountain climbing in North Carolina, tennis, and an occasional game ol golf. As a tennis player Robin has competed semi-pro and won 17 trophies. Other less physical hobbies in- clude chess and acrabble. He is upstate regional champion ol scrabble, and has competed against celebrites such as Lucille Ball and Jackie Cugan, who used to play Un- cle Fester on the “Adam's Family, a popular television series. Robin causally mentioned his highest score for one game: 739 pointsl At one time he was an illustrator tor comic book covers, which may explain his interest in collecting over 16,000 comic books. Robin is currently a faahion photographer with his own studio in Schenectady. This job has taken him all over the world, including exotic places such as Japan, England, Africa, and Romania. Graduating from Syracuse University in New York, Robin took courses in Drama and Psychology. Interested in the workings ol the mind, he was introduced to psychic phenomena, and from there has investigated a number of “haunted houses and has had many experiences with the occult. When asked of his future plans, Robin told me he was going to take it one day at a time and see what happens. When asked ol his outlooks on death, he just smiled, and said “Death is the greatest joy ol all. That's why I'm saving it for last. 268 SCOTIA CINEMA 117 Mohawk Avenue, Scotia, NY Ph: 346-5055 For the Best in Motion Picture Entertainment SCHENECTADY FEDERAL SAVINGS Main Office: 251 State St. (374-9184) Bellevue Office: 2526 Broadway (370-3100) Glenville Office: Mayfair Shopping Center Best of Luck Class of ’83 Amy and Mike Beth and Dave Tricia and Jim Melissa and John John and Claudette Sue and Ted Jennifer and Bob Hey Baby!’ Shawn and Terri Scott and Kris NEWS INDEX Seniors 17 Faculty 81 Sports 113 Underclassmen 161 Music 209 Activities 221 Community 257 Features The Newlywed Gang 14 Dear Uncle Richie 24 Senior Favorites 40 Dial a Service 57 Messages 72 Senior Will 73 Senior Superlatives 78
